Characterization of single amino acid substitutions in the β2 integrin subunit of patients with leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD)-1
Leukocyte adhesion deficiency 1 (LAD-1) is caused by defects in the β2 integrin subunit. We studied 18 missense mutations, 14 of which fail to support the surface expression of the β2 integrins. Integrins with the β2-G150D mutation fail to bind ligands, possibly due to the failure of the α1 segment...
