RCV001379463 | SCV001577266 | likely pathogenic | Tuberous sclerosis 2 | 2022-10-04 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of TSC2-related conditions (PMID: 21520333). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 65180). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 3 of the TSC2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in TSC2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10205261, 17304050). |

RCV004537243 | SCV004121085 | pathogenic | TSC2-related disorder | 2022-10-25 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The TSC2 c.226-1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the AG splice acceptor site and interfere with normal splicing. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. It is interpreted as likely pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/65180/). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice acceptor site in TSC2 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. |
| Ambry Genetics | RCV004018982 | SCV005036297 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2024-01-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.226-1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 3 of the TSC2 gene. This alteration has been observed in at least one individual with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with TSC-related disease (Ambry internal data). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. The resulting transcript is predicted to be in-frame and is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |
