Genes affected
EIF2B5 (HGNC:3261): (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B subunit epsilon) This gene encodes one of five subunits of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B (EIF2B), a GTP exchange factor for eukaryotic initiation factor 2 and an essential regulator for protein synthesis. Mutations in this gene and the genes encoding other EIF2B subunits have been associated with leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 18, 2023Reported with a second EIF2B5 variant, phase unknown, in patients with vanishing white matter disease in published literature (Leegwater et al., 2001; Turon-Vinas et al., 2014; Slynko et al., 2021); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; In addition, in silico splice predictors suggest this variant may lead to abnormal gene splicing; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29382480, 12707859, 31418856, 9710032, 18263758, 14572143, 16998732, 16807905, 20838246, 25089094, 33084218, 28252636, 35012964, 33432707, 11704758) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 29, 2023This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 106 of the EIF2B5 protein (p.Leu106Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs113994048, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter (PMID: 11704758, 25089094, 31418856). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 195203). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects EIF2B5 function (PMID: 14993275). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
