Autosomal dominant TRAF3 deficiency caused by heterozygous missense mutation (R118W) of one TRAF3 allele is associated with a loss-of-function, dominant-negative phenotype, resulting in a greatly reduced level of TRAF3 protein and impaired, but not abolished TRAF3-dependent responses (Perez de Diego R et al. 2010). Although various TRAF3-dependent pathways (such as TNFR, CD40, LT-bR, and BAFFR, TLRs and RIG1) were affected in the patient cells, most of them remained clinically silent. However, impairment of TLR3-mediated induction of IFN due to defective TRAF3 was associated with a clinical phenotype limited to herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) encephalitis (HSE), a rare life-threatening complication during HSV-1 infection of the central nervous system (CNS) (Perez de Diego R et al. 2010).

One case with HSE-associated TRAF3 deficiency has been reported so far.
