Null IFNAR1 and IFNAR2 alleles are surprisingly common in the Pacific and Arctic

In this issue of JEM, Bastard et al. (2022. J. Exp. Med. https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20220028) show that a loss-of-function IFNAR1 allele is common in western Polynesians, while Duncan et al. (2022. J. Exp. Med. https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20212427) report that a loss-of-function IFNAR2 allele is co...

description In this issue of JEM, Bastard et al. (2022. J. Exp. Med. https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20220028) show that a loss-of-function IFNAR1 allele is common in western Polynesians, while Duncan et al. (2022. J. Exp. Med. https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20212427) report that a loss-of-function IFNAR2 allele is common in Inuits. Homozygotes lack type I IFN immunity but are selectively vulnerable to influenza, COVID-19 pneumonia, and complications of live-attenuated viral vaccines.
