Research Article: Impaired B-cell function in ERCC2 deficiency

Date Published: 2024-07-11

Abstract:
Background: Trichothiodystrophy-1 (TTD1) is an autosomal-recessive disease and caused by mutations in ERCC2, a gene coding for a subunit of the TFIIH transcription and nucleotide-excision repair (NER) factor.
