TSC2: BS2 -
This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28687356, 32555378) -
The TSC2 c.1915C>T; p.Arg639Trp variant (rs766451267) is reported in the literature in an individual with malignant pleural mesothelioma and a family history of breast cancer, but this individual also carried a variant of uncertain significance in FANCA (Betti 2017). The p.Arg639Trp variant is reported in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 207723). It is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.004% (10/250400 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at codon 639 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. However, due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. REFERENCES Betti M et al. Germline mutations in DNA repair genes predispose asbestos-exposed patients to malignant pleural mesothelioma. Cancer Lett. 2017 Oct 1;405:38-45. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
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. -

not specified Benign:2
The frequency of this variant in the general population (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. This variant has been seen where an alternate explanation for disease was also identified. Assessment of experimental evidence regarding the effect of this variant on protein function suggests it has no effect relevant to disease (PMID:PMID 32555378). -
Variant summary: TSC2 c.1915C>T (p.Arg639Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 250400 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in TSC2 causing Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (4e-05 vs 6.9e-05), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1915C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant (Rosengren_2020). Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (likely benign n=5, VUS n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
