Human Genomics in Immunology

TL;DR: This chapter summarizes human DNA variations and how to assess the clinical impact of DNA changes in genes of the immune system, which, in turn, affect gene products essential for normal immune system development and homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recommendations from the ClinGen SCID VCEP: Implementation of ACMG/AMP Variant Curation Guidelines for Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease

TL;DR: The ClinGen Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease (SCID) VCEP was created to develop specifications-rules for SCIDassociated genes because the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG)/Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) guidelines from 2015 are not gene-specific as mentioned in this paper .
Book ChapterDOI

Severe Combined Immunodeficiency – from Discovery to Newborn Screening

TL;DR: Early identification of SCID through universal newborn screening makes possible life-saving intervention before infections occur, and offers new potential to define the incidence, spectrum and underlying basis of these disorders as well as to optimize their treatments.

Homozygosity fora NewlyIdentified Missense Mutation ina Patient withVerySevereCombinedImmunodeficiency Due toAdenosine DeaminaseDeficiency (ADA-SCID)

TL;DR: A previously unrecognized missense mutation in a patient with severe combined immunodeficiency duetoadenosine deaminase deficiency (ADA-SCID) is identified, which is a G61-to-A transition ata CGdinucleotide and predicts aglycine- to-arginine substitution atcodon216 and computer analysis of secondary structure predicts a major alteration with loss of a beta-pleated sheet.
