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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.018629164).
BP6
Variant X-71121070-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chrX-71121070-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 197770.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000395 (44/111421) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0014 (43/30661). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00107. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 8 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 23. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Hemizygotes in GnomAd4 at 8 XL gene

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

This alteration is classified as likely 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.
