Primary Immunodeficiency Syndrome Due To Lamtor2 Deficiency

Primary immunodeficiency syndrome due to p14 deficiency is characterised by short stature, hypopigmentation, coarse facies and frequent bronchopulmonary Streptococcus pneumoniae infections.

Epidemiology

To date, it has been described in four members of one family.

Etiology

Linkage analysis led to the identification of a homozygous deletion in the coding region of the ROBLD3 gene, resulting in reduced expression of the endosomal adaptor protein p14.
