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

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.55).
• BP6: Variant X-71120109-T-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chrX-71120109-T-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 264453.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=1.49 with no splicing effect.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000137 (15/1097981) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0000758 (2/26398). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000125. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 4 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
• BS2: High Hemizygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 4 XL gene
