## Abstract Leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter is a recently defined autosomal recessive disorder. The course is chronic progressive with additional episodes of rapid deterioration, provoked by fever and minor head trauma. A previous study showed that mutations in the genes encoding th

Autosomal recessive mutations in eukaryotic initiation factor 2B (eIF2B) cause leukoencephalopathy vanishing white matter with a wide clinical spectrum. eIF2B comprises five subunits (Ξ±-Ξ΅; genes EIF2B1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) and is the guanine nucleotide-exchange factor (GEF) for eIF2. It plays a key role
