Danielle Ariti (University of Melbourne)

Green List (high evidence)

12 unrelated individuals displaying combined immunodeficiency with T- and B- Lymphocytopaenia identified with LIG4 variants; 4 of these individuals showed SCID features; two mouse models.

Homozygous and compound heterozygous (Missense & nonsense) variants resulting in truncated protein

Most common phenotype includes microcephaly, developmental and mental delay, T- and B-lymphocytopaenia and varying degrees of hypogammaglobulinaemia.
