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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 16-2070500-TGA-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-2070500-TGA-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 467893.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, loss-of-function variants in TSC2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10205261, 17304050). This sequence change deletes 2 nucleotides from exon 17 of the TSC2 mRNA (c.1764_1765delGA), causing a frameshift at codon 588. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu588Aspfs*28) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -

The c.1764_1765delGA variant, located in coding exon 16 of the TSC2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 1764 to 1765, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E588Dfs*28). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
