Contribution of high‐throughput DNA sequencing to the study of primary immunodeficiencies

Abstract excerpt

Primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) are inborn errors of the immune system. PIDs have been characterized immunologically for the last 60 years and genetically, principally by Sanger DNA sequencing, over the last 30 years. The advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) in 2011, with the development of whole-exome sequencing in particular, has facilitated the identification of previously unknown genetic lesions. NGS...
