Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points: 6P and 1B. PM2PP3_StrongBP6
The NM_000548.5(TSC2):c.1946+5G>T variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000263 in 152,242 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).
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]

Variant 16-2071621-G-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-2071621-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 406022.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=2, Uncertain_significance=3}.
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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
This variant causes a G to T nucleotide substitution at the +5 position of intron 18 of the TSC2 gene. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing, although this prediction has not been confirmed in published RNA studies. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with TSC2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
