Gene summary

The preB cell receptor is found on the surface of proB and preB cells, where it is involved in transduction of signals for cellular proliferation, differentiation from the proB cell to the preB cell stage, allelic exclusion at the Ig heavy chain gene locus, and promotion of Ig light chain gene rearrangements. The preB cell receptor is composed of a membrane-bound Ig mu heavy chain in association with a heterodimeric surrogate light chain. This gene encodes one of the surrogate light chain subunits and is a member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily. This gene does not undergo rearrangement. Mutations in this gene can result in B cell deficiency and agammaglobulinemia, an autosomal recessive disease in which few or no gamma globulins or antibodies are made. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

IGLL1 was first reported in relation to autosomal recessive agammaglobulinemia 2 in 1998 (Minegishi Y, et al., 1998, PMID: 9419212). IGLL1 encodes the omega polypeptide chain which associates with the Ig mu chain to form a molecular complex on the surface of pre-B cells. This complex presumably regulates Ig gene rearrangements in the early steps of B-cell differentiation. Biallelic variation in this gene thus results in B cell deficiency and agammaglobulinemia. This gene-disease relationship is supported by both genetic and experimental evidence. Three variants (nonsense, missense, and frameshift) have been reported in five probands (PMIDs: 25502423, 19302039, 27576013, 9419212, and 33178177) and one additional affected family member (PMID: 25502423). A role in disease is supported by the expression of IGLL1 in the relevant tissue of bone marrow, specifically enriched in naïve B-cells (PMID: 2501791) and by an IGLL1 deficient mouse model which recapitulates the block in B cell development seen in patients (PMID: 1591779). In summary, there is moderate evidence to support this gene-disease relationship. While more evidence is needed to establish this relationship definitively, no convincing contradictory evidence has emerged.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_020070.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.
