Genes affected
TSC2 (HGNC:12363): (TSC complex subunit 2) This gene is a tumor suppressor gene that encodes the growth inhibitory protein tuberin. Tuberin interacts with hamartin to form the TSC protein complex which functions in the control of cell growth. This TSC protein complex negatively regulates mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling which is a major regulator of anabolic cell growth. Mutations in this gene have been associated with tuberous sclerosis and lymphangioleiomyomatosis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

A TSC2 c.1340C>T (p.Ala447Val) variant was identified at a near heterozygous allelic fraction of 47.3%, a frequency which may be consistent with it being of germline origin. This variant has been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in an individual affected with tuberous sclerosis complex (Hoogeveen-Westerveld M et al., PMID: 22903760) and it has been reported in a somatic state in one case in the cancer database COSMIC (Genomic Mutation ID: COSV105872688). This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database as a variant of uncertain significance by two submitters and a benign/likely benign variant by five submitters (ClinVar ID: 41727). The TSC2 c.1340C>T (p.Ala447Val) variant is only observed on 108/1,610,336 alleles in the general population (gnomAD v4.1.0). Computational predictors are uncertain as to the impact of this variant on TSC2 function. Due to limited information, and based on ACMG/AMP guidelines for variant interpretation (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868), the clinical significance of the TSC2 c.1340C>T (p.Ala447Val) variant is uncertain at this time. -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
