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]

TSC2 (HGNC:):

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 16-2076516-CT-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-2076516-CT-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 547826.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr16-2076516-CT-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	May 17, 2018	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe924Leufs*24) in the TSC2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TSC2-related disease. Loss-of-function variants in TSC2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10205261, 17304050). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
