CIITA
a non-DNA binding transactivator that functions both in constitutive and inducible MHC Class II expression. Defects are a cause of bare lymphocyte syndrome type II (BLS II), a form of severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) characterized by a profound defect in constitutive and interferon-gamma induced MHC II expression, an absence of cellular and humoral T-cell response to antigen challenge, hypogammaglobulinemia and impaired antibody production. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
