A disease-linked lncRNA mutation in RNase MRP inhibits ribosome synthesis

Mutations in the non-coding RNA RMRP cause primary immunodeficiency. Robertson et al show that a disease-associated mutation in RMRP impairs pre-ribosomal RNA processing and reduces ribosome abundance, establishing this disorder as a ribosomopathy.
