Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Biallelic DIAPH1 pathogenic variants cause a neurodevelopmental syndrome occasionally associated with immunodeficiency. This study aims to define the clinical and immunological spectrum of DIAPH1-related neuroimmunological syndrome and explore the gene's developmental role using vertebrate models. METHODS: A total of 53 individuals with biallelic DIAPH1 variants, including 33 previously unreported...
