In vitro responses of fibroblasts from patients with TBK1 deficiency after TLR3 dependent and independent stimuli
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We report here two unrelated HSE patients carrying different heterozygous mutations (D50A and G159A) in TBK1, the gene encoding TANK-binding kinase 1, a kinase at the crossroads of multiple IFN-inducing signaling pathways. Both mutant TBK1 alleles are loss-of-function, but through different mechanisms: protein instability (D50A) or a loss of kinase activity (G159A). Both are also associated with an autosomal dominant (AD) trait, but by different mechanisms: haplotype-insufficiency (D50A) or negative dominance (G159A). A defect in poly(I:C)-induced TLR3 responses can be detected in fibroblasts heterozygous for G159A, but not for D50A TBK1.
