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:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 10, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 50013). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with tuberous sclerosis complex (PMID: 16981987, 29500070). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1232Thrfs*92) in the TSC2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TSC2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10205261, 17304050). -

Lurie Children's Hospital of ChicagoMar 30, 2021TSC2 NM_000548.4 exon 31 p.Ser1232Thrfs*92 (c.3693_3696del): This variant has been reported in the literature in several individuals with tuberous sclerosis (Hung 2006 PMID:16981987, Au 2007 PMID:17304050, Lyall 2012 PMID:23217510, Papadopoulou 2018 PMID:29500070), including several entries in the Tuberous Sclerosis Database (http://chromium.lovd.nl/LOVD2/TSC/variants). This variant is not present in large control databases but is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:50013). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. This variant creates a premature stop codon 92 amino acids downstream from this location which results in an absent or abnormal protein. Loss of function variants are a known mechanism of disease for this gene (Rosset 2017 PMID:28222202). In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic based on the data above (impact to protein, absence from controls, etc.). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsAug 12, 2019The variant results in a shift of the reading frame, and is therefore predicted to result in the loss of a functional protein. Found in at least one symptomatic patient, and not found in general population data. -
