Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PVS1_ModeratePM2PP5_Moderate
The NM_000548.5(TSC2):c.4662+1G>T variant causes a splice donor, intron change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as 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]

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.017146017 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.3, offset of -19, new splice context is: cctGTatgt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 16-2085323-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-2085323-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2580417.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
Canonical splice site variant expected to result in aberrant splicing, although in the absence of functional evidence the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Deletions involving coding exons of this gene are a known mechanism of disease (HGMD); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27859028) -
