Abstract excerpt
Telomere biology disorders (TBDs) are characterized by bone marrow failure (BMF) and dysfunctional telomeres. So far, inherited mutations in 18 genes have been identified in TBDs. Here, we describe a child presenting with early BMF, immunodeficiency, and severely short and defective telomeres, carrying a homozygous splicing mutation (c.409-2 A > G; p.Q136_K138del) in RPA2 - a known replication factor and...
