    Objective: Families with multiple childhood systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) episodes may have a strong genetic predisposition


    METHODS: Sanger sequencing validated two ultra-rare predicted pathogenic risk variants identified by WES and additional variants in 562 additional SLE patients


    RESULTS: These two familial ultra-rare, predicted loss-of-function (LOF) SAT1 variants exhibited X-linked recessive Mendelian inheritance in two unrelated African American families


    Conclusions: This study identifies two novel SAT1 loss-of-function (LOF) variants, shows the ability of frameshift mutations to confer lupus, highlights the pathogenic role of dysregulated polyamine catabolism, and identifies SAT1 LOF variants for a new monogenic cause of SLE
