Gene variants that disrupt TCR signaling can cause severe immune deficiency, yet
less disruptive variants are sometimes associated with immune pathology. Null
mutations of the gene encoding the scaffold protein Src homology 2
domain-containing leukocyte protein of 76 kDa (SLP-76), for example, cause an
arrest of T cell positive selection, whereas a synthetic membrane-targeted allele
allows limited positive selection but is associated with proinflammatory cytokine
production and autoantibodies. Whether these and other enigmatic outcomes are due
to a biochemical uncoupling of tolerogenic signaling, or simply a quantitative
reduction of protein activity, remains to be determined. In this study we
describe a splice variant of Lcp2 that reduced the amount of wild-type SLP-76
protein by ~90%, disrupting immunogenic and tolerogenic pathways to different
degrees. Mutant mice produced excessive amounts of proinflammatory cytokines,
autoantibodies, and IgE, revealing that simple quantitative reductions of SLP-76
were sufficient to trigger immune dysregulation. This allele reveals a
dose-sensitive threshold for SLP-76 in the balance of immunity and immune
dysregulation, a common disturbance of atypical clinical immune deficiencies.
