Identification of a Novel Mutation in the CYBB Gene, p.Asp378Gly, in a Patient With X-linked Chronic Granulomatous Disease

Abstract: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare immunodeficiency disease, which is characterized by the lack of a functional nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase in phagocytes. The disease presents leukocytosis, anemia, hypergammaglobulinemia, and granuloma formation of the skin, lung, or lymph nodes. The mutation of the CYBB gene encoding gp91phox, located on chromosome Xp21.1 is one of the causes of CGD. We report a patient with X-linked CGD who carried a novel mutation, a c.1133A>G (paA… Show more

“…The main clinical manifestations are repeated and severe organ infections, including lungs, lymph nodes, liver, and skin. Occasionally CGD can present as a cardiac abscess or phlebitis, complicating the diagnosis, especially in neonates (Song et al, 2014). The most common type of CGD (~66%) is caused by a mutation on Xp21 involving the CYBB gene.…”

“…Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare inherited disorder with a prevalence of 1/200,000–250,000 and is characterized by early and recurrent severe bacterial or fungal infections and granuloma formation, [ 1 ] and the prevalence rates of CGD are similar in different ethnic and racial crowds. [ 2 ] CGD is a primary immunodeficiency disorder caused by damage to the Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase system. The Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase system consists of 5 subunits: gp91phox (also called NOX2, encoding gene CYBB), p22phox (encoding gene CYBA), p47phox (encoding gene NCF1), p67phox (encoding gene NCF2), and p40phox (encoding gene NCF4).…”

“…Mutations in CYBB account for two-thirds of CGD cases. [ 2 , 3 ] The CYBB gene located in Xp21.1 could cause X-linked CGD (X-CGD, MIM: 300481) disease.…”
