MED16 is part of tail of ‘mediator complex’
Plays a role in enhancer/promotor regions

Disruptive variants in other genes encoding proteins within this mediator complex (MED11/12/12/17/20, CDK8) are assoc w neurodevelopmental/neurodegenerative disorders

Cases
index family
Sibs (M/F) to consanguineous parents w NDD/mod ID, tetralogy of Fallot or VSD, bilat deafness, micrognathia, malar hypoplasia, dental AbN, pre auricular tags, hypoplastic nails, brachydactly
WES: biallelic MED16 p.Asp217Asn

Via genematcher
16 families total, 22 individuals, homozygous or compound het rare MED16 variants
Mixture of pLoF and missense variants

Motor delay in 16/17
DD or ID in 17/17
Speech delay in 15/15
6/19 ToF
7/19 other septal/aortic defects
6/18 deafness
11/18 microretrognathia
6/17 cleft palate
8/19 preauricular tags
9/20 puffy eyelids
12/20 nasal dysplasia (most commonly short columella w bulbous nasal tip)
7/20 corpus callosum anomalies

Not clear that functional work recapitulated phenotype as yet?
Immunofluroescence on HeLa cells transfected with variants observed ?conclusion
MED16 knockout mouse > growth delay, pre weaning lethality
MED16 knockout zebrafish > reduced body length, early death, no obvious craniofacial phenotype
