Not associated with a phenotype in OMIM, but is associated with MED11-associated neurodevelopmental disorder in Gen2Phen. PMID: 36001086 reports a single MED11 variant (NM_001001683.4: c.325C>T, p.Arg109*), that segregates with the condition in five unrelated families, however, there is homozygosity between two of these families, idicating that they may be related. Global delay was observed in three individuals from three unrelated familes and seizures were evident in four individuals from four unrelated families. Severe microcephaly was apparent in the two unrelated familes where this parameter was recorded. Overall, the MED11-associated neurodevelopmental disorder appeared to result in profound effects and proved fatal at birth and 10 days in two of the cases reported.
