Alternative titles and symbols : Immunodeficiency 32a, mycobacteriosis, autosomal dominant; Irf8 deficiency, autosomal dominant; Cd11c-positive/cd1c-positive dendritic cell deficiency, autosomal dominant;
Description : Autosomal dominant IRF8 deficiency causes an abnormal peripheral blood myeloid phenotype
with a marked loss of CD11C (ITGAX; 151510)-positive/CD1C (188340) dendritic cells,
resulting in selective susceptibility to mycobacterial infections (Hambleton et al.,
2011).;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the interferon regulatory factor 8 gene (IRF8, 601565.0002);
