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]

Submissions by phenotype

FG syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 03, 2024This sequence change falls in intron 26 of the MED12 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the MED12 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs373381746, gnomAD 0.01%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MED12-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408884). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not specified Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 06, 2017This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
