The most frequent form of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is caused by inactivation of the CYBB gene, which encodes the gp91-phox subunit of phagocyte NADPH oxidase. This defect prevents phagocytes from producing reactive oxygen species and thus from eradicating bacterial and fungal infections.
GRIA3 encodes glutamate receptor ionotropic AMPA (alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4isoxazolepropionic acid) subunit 3 and has been previously involved in X-linked intellectual disability (ID). We report on a male proband with ID and epilepsy associated with a duplication mapping within a gene desert,
