Novel Nonsense Mutation in SMARCD2 Gene Results in Dysplasia of All Myeloid Cell Lines
ABSTRACT Introduction Specific granule deficiency type II (SGD2) is a rare heterogeneous congenital disease characterized by early‐onset life‐threatening infections. SGD2 is caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the SMARCD2 gene. Methods Prenatal screening in our patient revealed a novel homozygous nonsense mutation in SMARCD2 (c.208C>T, p.Gln70*).
