PIGG variant pathogenicity assessment reveals characteristic features within 19 families.
Abstract | PURPOSE: METHODS: We describe 22 individuals from 19 unrelated families with biallelic variants in PIGG. We analyzed GPI-AP surface levels on granulocytes and fibroblasts for three and two individuals, respectively. We demonstrated enzymatic activity defects for PIGG variants in vitro in a PIGG/PIGO double knockout system. RESULTS: CONCLUSION: This in vitro system is a useful method to validate the pathogenicity of variants in PIGG and to study PIGG physiological functions.
