Common silent mutations in all types of hereditary complement C1q deficiencies.

Abstract excerpt

Hereditary complete deficiency of complement component C1q is a rare genetic disorder that is associated with severe recurrent infections and a high prevalence of lupus-erythematosus-like symptoms. In the past, several single nucleotide polymorphisms have been identified in all three genes coding for the C1q A, B, and C chains. These point mutations which either lead to termination codons, frameshift, or amino...
