A novel GATA2 distal enhancer mutation results in MonoMAC syndrome in 2 second cousins.

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the transcription factor GATA2 can cause MonoMAC syndrome, a GATA2 deficiency disease characterized by several findings, including disseminated nontuberculous mycobacterial infections, severe deficiencies of monocytes, natural killer cells, and B lymphocytes, and myelodysplastic syndrome. GATA2 mutations are found in ∼90% of patients with a GATA2 deficiency phenotype and are largely missense...
