JAK2 V617F constitutive activation requires JH2 residue F595: a pseudokinase domain target for specific inhibitors.
The JAK2 V617F mutation present in over 95% of Polycythemia Vera patients and in 50% of Essential Thrombocythemia and Primary Myelofibrosis patients renders the kinase constitutively active.
