Properdin deficiency, X-linked

Properdin deficiency is an x-linked recessive disorder caused by mutations of the properdin (CFP) gene. Klinical manifestations are severe infections. Especially meningococcal infections are fulminant. Also mutations of the properdin gene play a role in pathogenesis of the C3 glomerulonephritis.
