The NM_000548.5(TSC2):c.5228G>A(p.Arg1743Gln) variant causes a missense 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. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Pathogenic in Lovd. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R1743G) 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]

| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories | Jun 09, 2018 | The TSC2 c.5228G>A; p.Arg1743Gln variant (rs45507199), also known as R1720Q, is reported in multiple individuals affected with tuberous sclerosis complex and has been reported as a de novo variant (Coevoets 2009, Hoogeveen-Westerveld 2011, Overwater 2016, Qin 2010, see LOVD TSC2 database). Functional analyses show the variant disrupts the TSC1-TSC2 complex and affects downstream signaling (Coevoets 2009, Hoogeveen-Westerveld 2011, Overwater 2016). This variant is classified as pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 49960), as well as another variant at this codon (p.Arg1743Trp, Variation ID: 49471). The p.Arg1743Gln variant is absent from the general population databases (1000 Genomes Project, Exome Variant Server, and Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The arginine at codon 1743 is highly conserved and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Based on available information, the p.Arg1743Gln variant is considered to be pathogenic.

| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Oct 23, 2024 | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1743 of the TSC2 protein (p.Arg1743Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with tuberous sclerosis (PMID: 10732801, 16114042, 18854862, 20165957, 21309039). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 49960). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on TSC2 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TSC2 function (PMID: 18854862, 21309039). This variant disrupts the p.Arg1743 amino acid residue in TSC2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10205261, 16981987, 18854862, 25782670). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |

| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | May 04, 2018 | The Arg1743Gln variant in TSC2 was absent from large population studies but has been reported in at least 10 individuals with tuberous sclerosis (Gilbert 1998, Rendtorff 2005, Hung 2006, Qin 2010, van Eeghen 2013, Overwater 2016). In 2 of those individuals, the variant was reported to have occurred de novo (Rendtorff 2005, Overwater 2016). Different missense substitutions at this codon (p.Arg1743 Pro), (p.Arg1743Trp), and (p.Arg1743Gly) have been reported in individuals with tuberous sclerosis (HGMD database). In vitro functional studies provide some evi dence that the p.Arg1743Gln variant may impact protein function (Coevoets 2009, Hoogeveen-Westerveld 2011, Overwater 2016). However, these types of assays may n ot accurately represent biological function. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Arg1743Gln variant may impact the prot ein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity . In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for tub erous sclerosis in an autosomal dominant manner based upon presence in multiple affected individuals, absence from controls, in vitro functional evidence, and p redicted impact on protein.

TSC2-related disorder Pathogenic:1
| Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | May 13, 2024 | The TSC2 c.5228G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1743Gln. This variant (also described as p.Arg1720Gln) has been reported in multiple individuals with tuberous sclerosis (for example, see Gilbert et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 10732801; Kwiatkowski et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25782670; Bąbol-Pokora et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34403804; Ng et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 35918040) and has been observed to have arisen de novo in several patients (Rendtdorff et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 16114042; Qin et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20165957; Overwater et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27406250; Ding et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32211034). In vitro functional studies have demonstrated that this variant leads to reduced protein expression, disrupted formation of the TSC1/TSC2 complex, and dysregulation of downstream signaling pathways (Coevoets et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 18854862; Hoogeveen-Westerveld et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21309039; Overwater et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27406250). This variant has not been reported in the gnomAD database and is interpreted as pathogenic by multiple submitters to ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/49960/). Of note, additional missense variants affecting the same amino acid residue (p.Arg1743Trp, p.Arg1743Pro) have been reported as disease-causing in individuals with tuberous sclerosis (Jones et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 10205261; Sancak et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15798777; Ng et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 35918040). Taken together, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. - |
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
| Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Jun 22, 2018 | The p.R1743Q variant (also known as c.5228G>A), located in coding exon 40 of the TSC2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5228. The arginine at codon 1743 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been detected in multiple individual's with a clinical diagnosis of TSC (Gilbert JR et al. Neurogenetics. 1998 Aug;1:267-72; Au KS et al. Genet. Med. 2007 Feb;9:88-100; van Eeghen AM et al. Epilepsy Res. 2013 Jan;103:83-7). Functional studies have shown that the p.R1743Q variant leads to significantly reduced protein expression and disrupts the normal formation of the TSC1 and TSC2 complex (Coevoets R et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2009 Mar;17:301-10; Hoogeveen-Westerveld M et al. Hum. Mutat. 2011 Apr;32:424-35; Overwater IE et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2016 12;24:1688-1695). Of note, this variant is also referred to as p.R1720Q (c. 5177G>A) in some literature. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. - |
