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]

Jun 04, 2025
Myriad Genetics, Inc.
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered benign. This variant is intronic and is not expected to impact mRNA splicing. This variant has been observed at a population frequency that is significantly greater than expected given the associated disease prevalence and penetrance. Homozygosity has been confirmed in one or more individuals. As homozygosity for pathogenic variants in this gene is generally assumed to result in embryonic lethality, this variant is unlikely to be pathogenic. -
