Intellectual disability v9.144 MED12L Eleanor Williams changed review comment from: Since the last review additional cases have been reported.
In OMIM this gene is associated with Nizon-Isidor syndrome, OMIM:618872 (AD) - accessed 21st October 2025
In ClinGen the gene has a definitive rating with Nizon-Isidor syndrome, MONDO:0030030

There are now 3 more reports of plausable pathogenic variants in this gene in patients with an intellectual disability phenotype. 2 cases with de novo variants and 1 with a maternally inherited variant.

PMID: 36212160 - Park et al 2022 - WES to analyse 1,180 Korean patients with neurological symptoms. 1 individual with a de novo variant c.1895C>T; p.Ser632Leu in MED12L and a phenotype of global developmental delay and facial dysmorphism.

PMID: 35920825 - Ferraz et al 2022 - a male proband with a confirmed de novo germline frameshift variant in MED12L (NM_053002.6 (MED12L_v001):c.971del;p.(pro324Glnfs∗18)) identified by WES. The clinical phenotype included mild motor and speech delay, oligodontia, and dysmorphic signs. Of note the patient also carried 2 de novo chromosomal balanced reciprocal translocations: 46,XY,t(1;2)(p33;p22),t(5;9)(p15;q21) and the authors note that Nizon et al. 2019 report a patient with a balanced reciprocal translocation suggesting that the MED12L loss-of-function variant may contribute to chromosomal instability.

PMID: 40957966 - Dutta et al 2025 - report a proband with likely pathogenic MED12L nonsense variant (p.Arg1210Ter) which is maternally inherited (father also sequenced). At 2.5 yo the proband was diagnosed with global developmental delay, absent speech, ASD, hyperactivity, exophoria and myopia. Developmental regression began between 18 - 24 months. She has frequent respiratory infections. The 19 yo mother has a clinical history which includes speech delay and learning disability, but features are much milder than the proband. The proband also has inherited a pathogenic GAMT variant from her mother and a pathogenic TNFRSF13B variant from her father but these are not thought to contribute to the ID phenotype.; to: Since the last review additional cases have been reported.
