Functional rare and low frequency variants in BLK and BANK1 contribute to human lupus

Functional rare and low frequency variants in BLK and BANK1 contribute to human lupus

Function-altering variants of immune-related genes cause rare autoimmune syndromes, whereas their contribution to common autoimmune diseases remains uncharacterized. Here the authors show that rare variants of lupus-associated genes are present in the majority of lupus patients and healthy controls,...
