Genes affected
MED12 (HGNC:11957): (mediator complex subunit 12) The initiation of transcription is controlled in part by a large protein assembly known as the preinitiation complex. A component of this preinitiation complex is a 1.2 MDa protein aggregate called Mediator. This Mediator component binds with a CDK8 subcomplex which contains the protein encoded by this gene, mediator complex subunit 12 (MED12), along with MED13, CDK8 kinase, and cyclin C. The CDK8 subcomplex modulates Mediator-polymerase II interactions and thereby regulates transcription initiation and reinitation rates. The MED12 protein is essential for activating CDK8 kinase. Defects in this gene cause X-linked Opitz-Kaveggia syndrome, also known as FG syndrome, and Lujan-Fryns syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

Variant summary: MED12 c.6223_6228dupCAGCAG (p.Gln2075_Gln2076dup) results in an in-frame duplication that is predicted to duplicate *** amino acids into the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00019 in 168423 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MED12 causing MED12-Related Disorders, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.6223_6228dupCAGCAG in individuals affected with MED12-Related Disorders and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 213619). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
