Nature and nurture: understanding phenotypic variation in inborn errors of immunity
The overall disease burden of pediatric infection is high, with widely varying clinical outcomes including death.Among the most vulnerable children, those with inborn errors of immunity, reduced penetrance and variable expressivity are common but poorly understood.There are several genetic mechanisms that influence phenotypic variation in inborn er
