Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PM5BS2
The NM_000548.5(TSC2):c.176G>A(p.Arg59Gln) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000616 in 1,461,680 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R59W) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Tuberous sclerosis 2 Uncertain:2

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 59 of the TSC2 protein (p.Arg59Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of tuberous sclerosis complex (PMID: 32917966). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 486661). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt TSC2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
Tuberous sclerosis syndrome Uncertain:1
- -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.R59Q variant (also known as c.176G>A), located in coding exon 2 of the TSC2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 176. The arginine at codon 59 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
