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]

Significance:Benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: TSC2 c.1609C>T (p.Arg537Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00015 in 250188 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 2 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TSC2 causing Tuberous Sclerosis Complex phenotype (6.9e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. Although this variant has been reported in the literature, to our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1609C>T in individuals affected with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as benign (n=1)/likely benign (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Myriad Genetics, Inc.

Significance:Benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered benign. Homozygosity has been confirmed in one or more individuals. As homozygosity for pathogenic variants in this gene is generally assumed to result in embryonic lethality, this variant is unlikely to be pathogenic. This variant has been observed at a population frequency that is significantly greater than expected given the associated disease prevalence and penetrance. -

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
