Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Moderate
The NM_000368.5(TSC1):c.1264-1G>C variant causes a splice acceptor, intron change. 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 (★).
TSC1 (HGNC:12362): (TSC complex subunit 1) This gene is a tumor suppressor gene that encodes the growth inhibitory protein hamartin. The encoded protein interacts with and stabilizes the GTPase activating protein tuberin. This hamartin-tuberin complex negatively regulates mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling which is a major regulator of anabolic cell growth. This protein also functions as a co-chaperone for Hsp90 that inhibits its ATPase activity. This protein functions as a facilitator of Hsp90-mediated folding of kinase and non-kinase clients, including TSC2 and thereby preventing their ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with tuberous sclerosis and lymphangioleiomyomatosis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

The c.1264-1G>C variant in TSC1 has not been reported in individuals with tuberous sclerosis (TSC) or in large population studies. This variant occurs in the invariant region (+/- 1,2) of the splice consensus sequence and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. Another nucleotide change at this position (c.1264-1G>A) has been reported in two families with TSC (Tuberous sclerosis databse - LOVD; http://chromium.lovd.nl/LOVD2/TSC), supporting that variation at position c.1264-1 leads to loss of TSC1 function. Heterozygous loss-of-function of the TSC1 gene is an established disease mechanism in individuals with tuberous sclerosis. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for tuberous sclerosis in an autosomal dominant manner based upon the predicted impact to the protein.
