Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM2PM5
The NM_000548.5(TSC2):c.3254C>G(p.Ser1085Trp) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000685 in 1,460,492 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S1085P) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.
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]
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing
The p.S1085W variant (also known as c.3254C>G), located in coding exon 27 of the TSC2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 3254. The serine at codon 1085 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
