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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 20, 2021The c.5238_5255dup18 variant (also known as p.H1746_R1751dup), located in coding exon 40 of the TSC2 gene, results from an in-frame duplication of 18 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 5238 to 5255. This results in the duplication of 6 extra residues (HIKRLR) between codons 1746 and 1751. This alteration was detected in 1/66 unrelated patients of Mexican-descent that clinically fulfilled the criteria for tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) (Reyna-Fabián ME, et al. Sci Rep 2020 04;10(1):6589). This amino acid region is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Tuberous sclerosis 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMay 01, 2023ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 962769). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with tuberous sclerosis complex (PMID: 32313033). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant, c.5238_5255dup, results in the insertion of 6 amino acid(s) of the TSC2 protein (p.His1746_Arg1751dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
