X-linked immunodeficiency is an immunodeficiency in mice due to defects in the Btk tyrosine kinase, sharing the gene defect with human X-linked agammaglobulinemia but resulting in a milder B cell defect.
La inmunodeficiencia ligada al cromosoma X es una inmunodeficiencia en ratones debido a defectos en la tirosina quinasa Btk, compartiendo el defecto genético con la agammaglobulinemia ligada al cromosoma X humana, pero resultando en un defecto de células B más leve.
