Paternal mosaicism proves the pathogenic nature of mutations in neutrophil elastase in severe congenital neutropenia [PDF]
, 2002 Heterozygous mutations in neutrophil elastase have been detected in many sporadic cases of congenital neutropenia. However, a convincing pathogenetic mechanism has not been established, and it is unclear whether the effects of the mutant enzyme occur ...
