The 1034del4 and 781G>A mutations in the coding region of UNC93B1 gene both result in a premature termination codon, leading to a complete loss of UNC93B1 expression and function due to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (Casrouge A et al. 2006). Under normal conditions UNC96B functions as a chaperone delivering nucleotide-sensing toll-like receptors TLR3, TLR7-9 from the endoplasmic reticulum to the endosome (Kim YM et al. 2008). Autosomal recessive UNC93B1 deficiency in patients may contribute to pathogenesis of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) encephalitis (HSE) due to impaired production of IFN-alpha, beta and gamma in cells of central nervous system(CNS) via TLR3-mediated immune response to HSV1 (Casrouge A et al. 2006; Lafaille FG et al. 2012).
