Primary Immunodeficiency Study Highlights Monogenic, Common Variant Disease Contributors

May 07, 2020

|

NEW YORK – An international team has combined genome sequencing and genome-wide association analyses to track down high-penetrance, monogenic contributors to primary immunodeficiency (PID), along with common variants contributing to the heterogeneous conditions, within and outside of the genes implicated in monogenic forms of disease.
