Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: FAS gene defects lead to autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS), which is often inherited in an autosomal dominant and rarely in an autosomal recessive manner. We report a case of a newborn girl with novel compound heterozygous variants in FAS and reveal the underlying mechanism. METHODS: Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was used to identify pathogenic variants. Multiparametric flow cytometry...
