RGD uses the Human Disease Ontology (DO, https://disease-ontology.org/) for disease curation across species. RGD automatically downloads each new release of the ontology on a monthly basis. Some additional terms which are required for RGD's curation purposes but are not currently covered in the official version of DO have been added. As corresponding terms are added to DO, these custom terms are retired and the DO terms substituted in existing annotations and subsequently used for curation.

Affected individuals usually present in infancy or early childhood with increased susceptibility to infections, often Epstein-Barr virus, as well as with lymphadenopathy or autoimmune manifestations, predominantly hemolytic anemia.
