GeneDx RCV000413799 SCV000491862 uncertain significance not specified 2016-11-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the TSC2 gene. The c.1214 A>T variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The c.1214 A>T variant 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. Several in-silico splice prediction models predict that c.1214 A>T creates a cryptic splice donor site for exon 12, which may lead to abnormal gene splicing. If c.1214 A>T does not alter splicing, it will result in the E405V missense change. The E405V variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size, and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at an amino acid position where amino acids with similar properties to Glutamic acid are tolerated across species. Missense variants in nearby residues (Y407D, L410R) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with tuberous sclerosis (Stenson et al., 2014). In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant.
