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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.

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. Studies have shown that this variant is associated with altered splicing resulting in unknown protein product impact (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 406084). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TSC2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects codon 1733 of the TSC2 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the TSC2 protein. -

The c.5199C>A (p.T1733T) alteration is located in exon 41 (coding exon 40) of the TSC2 gene. This alteration consists of a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 5199. This nucleotide substitution does not change the amino acid at codon 1733. However, this change occurs in the last nucleotide of Exon 41 (c.5161_5259) which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
