GARD : ²⁰ Yunis-Varon syndrome is a rare condition that affects many different parts of the body. Signs and symptoms are generally present from birth and may include underdeveloped or absent collarbones (clavicles); large fontanelles ; characteristic facial features; hypotonia (reduced muscle tone) and/or abnormalities of the fingers and toes. Affected people may also experience feeding difficulties, breathing problems, brain malformations, heart defects, skeletal abnormalities, developmental delay, and/or intellectual disability. Yunis-Varon syndrome is caused by changes ( mutations ) in the FIG4 gene and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Treatment is based on the signs and symptoms present in each person.

MalaCards based summary : Yunis-Varon Syndrome, also known as yunis varon syndrome, is related to tooth disease and peripheral nervous system disease. An important gene associated with Yunis-Varon Syndrome is FIG4 (FIG4 Phosphoinositide 5-Phosphatase), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Glycerophospholipid biosynthesis and superpathway of inositol phosphate compounds. Affiliated tissues include bone, heart and eye, and related phenotypes are aplasia of the distal phalanges of the hand and aplasia of the distal phalanx of the hallux

Disease Ontology : ¹² A syndrome characterized by skeletal defects, including cleidocranial dysplasia and digital anomalies, and severe neurologic involvement with neuronal loss. Enlarged cytoplasmic vacuoles are found in neurons, muscle, and cartilage. It is usually lethal in infancy and has material basis in homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the FIG4 gene on chromosome 6q21.

OMIM® : ⁵⁷ Yunis-Varon syndrome is a severe autosomal recessive disorder characterized by skeletal defects, including cleidocranial dysplasia and digital anomalies, and severe neurologic involvement with neuronal loss. Enlarged cytoplasmic vacuoles are found in neurons, muscle, and cartilage. The disorder is usually lethal in infancy (summary by Campeau et al., 2013). (216340) (Updated 20-May-2021)

KEGG : ³⁶ Yunis-Varon syndrome (YVS) is a rare autosomal recessive condition characterized by limb defects, ossification defects, generalized hypotrichosis and, frequently, a severe neonatal course. Frameshift and missense mutations of FIG4 in affected individuals from unrelated families have been identified. FIG4 encodes a phosphoinositide phosphatase required for regulation of PI(3,5)P2 levels, and thus endosomal trafficking and autophagy.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : ⁷² Yunis-Varon syndrome: A severe autosomal recessive disorder characterized by skeletal defects, including cleidocranial dysplasia and digital anomalies, and severe neurologic involvement with neuronal loss. Enlarged cytoplasmic vacuoles are found in neurons, muscle, and cartilage. The disorder is usually lethal in infancy.
