Outline of Final Research Achievements

We performed whole exome sequencing in patients with possible herediatry lymphoproliferative disorders, and identified NRAS-associated lymphoproliferative disorder, female XIAP deficiency caused by extremely skewed X-chromosome inactivation, aytpical X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency with IL2RG mosaicism, atypical X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome type 1 with SH2D1A mosaicism, Epstein-Barr virus-associated lymphoproliferative disorder (EBV-LPD) caused by hypomorphic ZAP70 mutation and IKAROS deficiency. It has been proved that EBV-LPD might be associated with at least 23 candidate genes. Therefore, we established comrehensive diagnostic tool by using multiplex PCR and next-generation sequencer.
