Abstract excerpt
In common variable immunodeficiency (CVID), heterozygous damaging NFKB1 variants represent the most frequent monogenic cause. NFKB1 encodes the precursor p105, which undergoes proteasomal processing to generate the mature NF-κB transcription factor subunit p50. The majority of NFKB1 sequence changes comprises missense variants of uncertain significance (VUS), each requiring functional evaluation to assess...
