Pathophysiology Genetics Researchers have identified five regions of the X chromosome that are linked to FG syndrome in affected families. In one of these regions, a mutation in a particular gene called MED12 has been found to cause the disorder. [wikidoc.org]

[…] amino acid asparagine, normally located at position 1007 along the MED12 sequence, has been mistakenly replaced by serine. [27] This mutation in MED12 causes incorrect expression and activity of the protein it encodes, resulting in the disorder. [3] [9] Pathophysiology [wikiwand.com]
