Biology:MED12

From HandWiki

Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription, subunit 12 homolog (S. cerevisiae), also known as MED12, is a human gene found on the X chromosome.[1]

Clinical significance

Mutations in MED12 are responsible for at least two different forms of X-linked dominant Intellectual disability, Lujan-Fryns syndrome and FG syndrome, as well as instances of prostate cancer.[2]

Mutations in MED12 are associated with uterine leiomyomas[3] and breast fibroepithelial tumors (e.g. fibroadenoma and phyllodes tumors).[4]

Interactions

MED12 has been shown to interact with:
