Cleft palate, cardiac defects, and mental retardation (CPCMR) is characterized by atrial or ventricular septal defects, cleft palate, and variable developmental delays and intellectual disability. It has been reported that deletions in MEIS2 can cause this disease. MEIS2 is a homeodomain-containing transcription factor of the TALE superfamily that has been proven important for development.
