- Inborn errors of immunity (IEls) are a heterogeneous group of disorders due to genetic defects in the immune response that have a broad clinical spectrum. Diagnosis of the precise genetic cause of IEI has led to improved care and treatment of patients; however, genetic diagnosis using standard approaches is only successful in -40% of patients and is particularly challenging in "sporadic" cases without a family history. Standard genetic testing for IEl evaluates for germline changes in genes encoding proteins important for the immune response. It is now clear that IEl can also arise from de novo mutations leading to genetic variants present in germ cells and/or somatic cells. What genetic mechanism has emerged as a significant and often potentially overlooked molecular mechanism of IEI?
