We considered this gene, IL2RG, a candidate for the X-linked form of severe combined immunodeficiency at the SCIDX1 locus, in which affected males have impaired lymphocyte development. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization and PCR amplification of somatic cell hybrid DNAs, we mapped IL2RG to human Xq13.1, a location within the SCIDX1 critical region established by linkage analysis. The 4.2 kb IL2RG gene was sequenced, and its genomic organization was elucidated. Seven of 19 transformed B-lymphocyte cell lines with independent SCIDX1 mutations had absent or minimal IL2RG mRNA. Unique point mutations were documented to be specifically associated with the disease and the carrier state in four unrelated affected males and their family members: one in a boy with no detectable IL2RG mRNA, in which the mutation ablated a splice donor site; one causing premature chain termination; and two causing distinct amino acid changes. The demonstration of impaired IL2RG mRNA expression in males with X-linked SCID and of unique point mutations in SCIDX1 pedigrees constitutes powerful evidence that the SCIDX1 gene is IL2RG. Noguchi et al. (2) have independently published IL2RG mapping to Xq13 and discovery of mutations in three affected males. The specific pathogenesis of IL2RG mutations and approaches to gene therapy can now be addressed in the X-linked form of SCID."xsd:string |
