Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -16 ACMG points: 4P and 20B. PM1PM5BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2

The NM_000548.5(TSC2):​c.5017G>C​(p.Val1673Leu) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000221 in 1,612,026 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 6 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. V1673F) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -16 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 14 benign, 39 uncertain in NM_000548.5
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr16-2087890-G-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 65153.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.0126879215).
BP6
Variant 16-2087890-G-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-2087890-G-C is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 49495.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0000987 (15/151966) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.00311 (15/4826). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00192. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 12 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
BS2

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as 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.
