Genes affected
EPG5 (HGNC:29331): (ectopic P-granules 5 autophagy tethering factor) This gene encodes a large coiled coil domain-containing protein that functions in autophagy during starvation conditions. Mutations in this gene cause Vici syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxSep 01, 2017The c.2718+3A>G variant in the EPG5 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is not predicted to significantly affect splicing, however in the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of c.2718+3A>G in this individual is unknown. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. The c.2718+3A>G variant is observed in 5/6616 (0.075%) alleles from individuals of Finnish background, in the ExAC dataset (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret c.2718+3A>G as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Vici syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 31, 2022This sequence change falls in intron 14 of the EPG5 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the EPG5 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs374002995, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EPG5-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 451768). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
