The importance of calcium (Ca2+) as a second messenger in T cell signaling is exemplified by genetic deficiencies of STIM1 and ORAI1, which abolish store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) resulting in combined immunodeficiency (CID). We report five unrelated patients with de novo missense variants in ITPR3, encoding a subunit of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R), which forms a Ca2+ channel in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane responsible for the release of ER Ca2+ required to trigger SOCE, and for Ca2+ transfer to other organelles. The patients presented with CID, abnormal T cell Ca2+ homeostasis, incompletely penetrant ectodermal dysplasia, and multisystem disease.
