Pаrents whо were distаntly relаted tо each оther brought their 11-week-old infant Kristen to the emergency room after she had a seizure accompanied by a persistently high fever and running nose. Her liver and spleen were palpable (hepatosplenomegaly). Laboratory tests revealed abnormally high levels of lymphocytes, and of the cytokines IFNγ, TNF, and IL-6. Conversely, levels of hemoglobin and platelets were abnormally low. Bone marrow aspiration showed the presence of macrophages containing phagocytosed red blood cells and numerous large granular lymphocytes. Molecular analysis was carried out to confirm the physician’s suspicion of a congenital immunodeficiency. The cause? A frameshift mutation in the perforin gene PRF1 was found on both chromosomes.

Which of the following would not be consistent with the etiology of FHL?
