Novel mutation in PIK3CD affecting the Ras-binding domain

Introduction: The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway plays critical roles in diverse cellular processes, including differentiation, proliferation, motility, survival, and growth. PI3Kδ, comprised of the catalytic subunit p110δ and regulatory subunit p85α, is essential for normal lymphocyte and myeloid development and function. Gain-of-function mutations in PIK3CD (encoding p110δ) cause a combined immunodeficiency known as activated PI3Kδ …
