Genes affected
EIF2B3 (HGNC:3259): (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B subunit gamma) The protein encoded by this gene is one of the subunits of initiation factor eIF2B, which catalyzes the exchange of eukaryotic initiation factor 2-bound GDP for GTP. It has also been found to function as a cofactor of hepatitis C virus internal ribosome entry site-mediated translation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with leukodystrophy with vanishing white matter. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 13, 2023In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27864579, 31418856, 11835386, 25079571, 22312164, 23115207, 16998732, 14572143, 26162493, 31589614, 33084218, 27535533, 35783294) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 87 of the EIF2B3 protein (p.Ala87Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs113994022, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter (PMID: 11835386, 22312164, 25079571, 31418856). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4439). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt EIF2B3 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects EIF2B3 function (PMID: 33517449). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Vanishing white matter disease Pathogenic:1Other:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 22, 2023Variant summary: EIF2B3 c.260C>T (p.Ala87Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Nucleotidyl transferase domain (IPR005835) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.8e-05 in 251402 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in EIF2B3 causing Leukoencephalopathy With Vanishing White Matter (8.8e-05 vs 0.00032), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.260C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Leukoencephalopathy With Vanishing White Matter and related clinical features (Example: Robinson_2014, van der Knapp_2002, Cohen_2020, LaPiana_2012 etc.) . These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified as Pathogenic (n=1), Likely Pathogenic (n=1) and VUS (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 18, 2024The EIF2B3 c.260C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala87Val. This variant was reported in homozygous and compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals with leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter (van der Knaap et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 11835386; La Piana et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22312164; Ghezzi et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 23115207; Robinson et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25079571; Cohen et al. 2019.

This variant is reported in 0.016% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
