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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genome-Nilou Lab	Nov 07, 2021	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 21, 2020	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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TSC2-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 207778). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces isoleucine with methionine at codon 44 of the TSC2 protein (p.Ile44Met). The isoleucine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between isoleucine and methionine. -

p.Ile44Met (ATA>ATG): c.132 A>G in exon 2 of the TSC2 gene (NM_000548.3) A variant of unknown significance has been identified in the TSC2 gene. The I44M variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. It was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. The I44M variant occurs within a known functional domain of the tuberin protein, where many pathogenic missense mutations have been identified (Northrup et al., 2011; Au et al., 2007). However, the I44M variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in EPILEPSYV2-1 panel(s). -
