Mutations in the gene encoding the common gamma chain (γc) of interleukin receptors 2, 4, 7, 9, 15 and 21 result in X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1). Classically, this disease is characterised by an absence of T and NK cells, and near normal numbers of functionally deficient B cel
Three novel mutations in the IL-2R gamma chain gene were identified in four Japanese patients with X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency by direct sequence analysis of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified DNA fragments.
