A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in individuals with two pathogenic alleles, either homozygotes (two copies of the same mutant allele) or compound heterozygotes (whereby each copy of a gene has a distinct mutant allele).
 
Gene (location): CD8A (2p11.2)

Definition

Immunodeficiency-116 (IMD116) is an autosomal recessive immunologic disorder characterized by the onset of recurrent upper and lower respiratory tract infections in infancy or early childhood. Laboratory studies show absence of CD8+ T cells, whereas other lymphocyte numbers and immunoglobulin levels are normal (Dumontet et al., 2015). [from OMIM]
