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]

Tuberous sclerosis 2 Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 11, 2018	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg120*) in the TSC2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in TSC2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10205261, 17304050). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TSC2-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 429805). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). -

The R120X nonsense variant in the TSC2 gene is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. It was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Although this variant has not been reported previously to our knowledge, we interpret it as pathogenic. -
