Inherited p40phox deficiency differs from classic chronic granulomatous disease [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2018 Biallelic loss-of-function (LOF) mutations of the NCF4 gene, encoding the p40phox subunit of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase, have been described in only 1 patient. We report on 24 p40phox-deficient patients from 12 additional families in 8 countries.
