Common Variable Immunodeficiency (Monogenic CVID)
- Common variable immunodeficiency
Low IgG with low IgA and/or IgM and poor vaccine responses; single-gene forms include NFKB1, NFKB2, ICOS, CD19, CD81, CR2, IKZF1, IRF2BP2, SEC61A1 and TNFRSF13B (TACI).
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 5 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
Immunoglobulin replacement and early treatment of infections are standard; a genetic cause can guide monitoring for autoimmunity, lymphoma and lung disease, and some forms (such as LRBA deficiency) respond to targeted therapy.

Other Inborn Errors of Immunity
- Inborn error of immunity
One of 114 genes linked to it
Inherited disorders of the immune system caused by changes in single genes, affecting how the body fights infection or regulates inflammation.
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 5 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
- Immunodeficiency Disease
One of 170 genes linked to it
Disease in which there is a deficiency or defect in the mechanisms of immunity, either cellular or humoral.
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 5 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
HSCT for SCID and severe PIDs; immunoglobulin replacement (IVIG/SCIG) for antibody deficiencies; leniolisib (Joenja, FDA 2023) for APDS; gene therapy for ADA-SCID; abatacept for CTLA4/LRBA deficiency; prophylactic antibiotics; G-CSF for CGD

- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 1.4 kb of the gene's 33 kb; 882 of those bases code for the protein.

None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 33 kb of TNFRSF13B, introns included, not only the 1.4 kb of exons.
