Three new adenosine deaminase mutations that define a splicing enhancer and cause severe and partial phenotypes: implications for evolution of a CpG hotspot and expression of a transduced ADA cDNA

We report three novel adenosine deaminase (ADA) mutations with interesting implications. A Somali child with severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) had reduced ADA mRNA in T cells and was homozygous for the nonsense mutation Q3X. Unexpectedly, her healthy father was a compound ADA heterozyg...
