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]

PKD1 (HGNC:9008): (polycystin 1, transient receptor potential channel interacting) This gene encodes a member of the polycystin protein family. The encoded glycoprotein contains a large N-terminal extracellular region, multiple transmembrane domains and a cytoplasmic C-tail. It is an integral membrane protein that functions as a regulator of calcium permeable cation channels and intracellular calcium homoeostasis. It is also involved in cell-cell/matrix interactions and may modulate G-protein-coupled signal-transduction pathways. It plays a role in renal tubular development, and mutations in this gene cause autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease type 1 (ADPKD1). ADPKD1 is characterized by the growth of fluid-filled cysts that replace normal renal tissue and result in end-stage renal failure. Splice variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. Also, six pseudogenes, closely linked in a known duplicated region on chromosome 16p, have been described.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 6 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

Tuberous sclerosis 2 Uncertain:1

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Frameshift variants that extend the reading frame of the C-terminal end of the TSC2 protein have been observed in individuals affected with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) (PMID: 21520333, 24789117, 21520333, Invitae). However, while nonsense variants that remove this very C-terminal end of the TSC2 protein have been observed in several instances, the individuals do not have clinical features consistent with TSC (Invitae). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TSC2-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change results in a premature translational stop signal in the TSC2 gene (p.Tyr1788*). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 20 amino acids of the TSC2 protein. This variant is not expected to affect the Rap-GAP domain, which is required for tumor suppression function (PMID: 8799170, 18466115). Experimental studies are not available for this variant, and the functional significance of the deleted amino acids 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Y1788* variant (also known as c.5364T>G), located in coding exon 41 of the TSC2 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 5364. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine to a stop codon within coding exon 41. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theTSC2 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay, and only impacts the last 20 amino acids of the protein. The exact functional effect of this alteration is unknown. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
