RCV001388145 | SCV001589016 | pathogenic | Tuberous sclerosis 2 | 2020-06-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine with lysine at codon 1044 of the TSC2 protein (p.Arg1044Lys). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and lysine. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 27 of the TSC2 coding sequence, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of tuberous sclerosis (PMID: 21520333, Invitae). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 65309). |
