Key Messages

The letter describes a rare familial form of peripheral blood eosinophilia with GI symptoms.

A variant causing a Phe75Leu mutation in CMTM3 is associated with the family's symptoms.

The mutation is predicted to cause destabilisation of the interaction of the protein with membrane lipids.
