Analyzing immunity by forward genetics

While the exact number of genes required for a robust immune response remains unknown, it appears to be quite large based on the high heritability of premature death from infectious disease (equivalent to failure of immunoprotection).  To identify these genes, germline mutagenesis has been linked to a series of genetic screens implemented in mammals.  These screens probe various aspects of the immune response, including the ability to survive viral infection, produce an antibody response, and resolve inflammation.  Dozens of essential proteins, many of them new, have been identified as a result, and an early “picture” of these immune processes has begun to emerge as well.
