The NM_000548.5(TSC2):c.5094C>A(p.Ser1698Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000187 in 1,612,828 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Uncertain significancein ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S1698T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
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]
In a domain Rap-GAP (size 227) in uniprot entity TSC2_HUMAN there are 360 pathogenic changes around while only 144 benign (71%) in NM_000548.5
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.015480399).
BP6
Variant 16-2088073-C-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-2088073-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 49451.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr16-2088073-C-A is described in Lovd as [Benign].
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00108 (164/152310) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.00378 (157/41570). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00329. There are 1 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 83 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck.
This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

The p.Ser1698Arg variant in TSC2 has been reported in at least 2 individuals with tuberous sclerosis complex (PMID: 17304050), but has also been identified in at least 2 individuals from a healthy cohort (PMID: 24728327) and 0.3421% (85/24850) of African chromosomes, 0.01129% (4/35420) of Latino chromosomes, and 0.0007790% (1/128370) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs45514196). This variant has been reported benign and likely benign in ClinVar (Variation ID: 49451). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. One additional variant, resulting in a different amino acid change at the same position, p.Ser1698Thr, has been reported as a VUS in association with disease in ClinVar (Variation ID: 578397). At least 2 unaffected individuals with the variant have been reported in the literature (PMID: 24728327) and tuberous sclerosis complex is fully penetrant except in rare cases with mild mutations (PMID: 27226234), slightly increasing the likelihood that this variant is benign. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely benign. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BS1, BS2_Supporting (Richards 2015). -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
