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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant is absent from controls (PM2), and mRNA level analysis showed splicing variant causing 14 aminoacids inframe deletion in LCEWAV domain (NM_005120.3:r.847_888del ) (PM4) at the same time of missense effect p.Arg296Gln. This variant was cosegregated with both affected brothers and carrier mother (PP1), and symptoms were consistent with X-linked Ohdo syndrome (PP4). Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect as CADD phred score is 31 (PP3), also previously reported as likely-pathogenic in ClinVae (PP5). This variant It is judged to be likely-pathogenic according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015. -

PS4, PM2, PP3, PP5 - The variant has been reported in ClinVar by other laboratories (Variation ID 1069251). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with MED12 X-linked recessive associated conditions (PMID: 34573309). Low frequency in gnomAD population databases. In silico prediction tools estimated that the variant could be damaging for the protein function/stracture. -

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000522111). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 522111). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MED12 protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with MED12 X-linked recessive associated conditions (PMID: 27500536, 28794916, 34573309). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 296 of the MED12 protein (p.Arg296Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
