Abstract excerpt
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is caused by mutations in the Bruton tyrosine kinase) BTK) gene. Affected patients have severely reduced amounts of circulating B cells. Patients with atypical XLA may have residual circulating B cells, and there are few studies exploring these cells' repertoire. We aimed to study the B cell repertoire of a novel hypomorphic mutation in the BTK gene, using the next generation...
