Gene information for TSC2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7249
Official gene symbolTSC2
Full nametuberous sclerosis 2
Aliases,FLJ43106,LAM,TSC4,
Gene summaryMutations in this gene lead to tuberous sclerosis complex. Its gene product is believed to be a tumor suppressor and is able to stimulate specific GTPases. The protein associates with hamartin in a cytosolic complex, possibly acting as a chaperone for hamartin. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
