Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000548.5(TSC2):c.3532C>T(p.Gln1178*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Q1178Q) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Tuberous sclerosis 2 Pathogenic:2
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1178*) in the TSC2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TSC2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10205261, 17304050). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with tuberous sclerosis complex (PMID: 10533067). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 49263). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The Q1178X nonsense variant in the TSC2 gene has been reported previously in association with tuberous sclerosis (Niida et al., 1999; TSC2 LOVD). The Q1178X variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). This pathogenic variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Therefore, the presence of Q1178X is consistent with the diagnosis of TSC in this individual. -
