Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a low-grade destructive metastasizing PEComatous tumor 1 resulting from the proliferation of LAM cells in the lung, kidney and axial lymphatics. The disease is caused by mutations of the TSC2 or TSC1 genes and is more commonly sporadic rather than inherited. WebTuberous sclerosis proteins 1 and 2, also known as TSC1 (hamartin) and TSC2 (tuberin), form a protein-complex. The encoding two genes are TSC1 and TSC2.The complex is known as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in these genes can cause tuberous sclerosis complex.Depending on the grade of the disease, intellectual disability, epilepsy and …

WebOct 29, 2024 · The two TSC2 molecules interact via their dimerization domains in an antiparallel manner, allowing the catalytic pockets of the GAP (GTPase-activating protein) domains to face outward of the TSC complex (Yang et al., 2024). This asymmetric TSC1-TSC2 complex binds a single TBC1D7 molecule via association with one C-terminus in the … Mutations in this gene lead to tuberous sclerosis. Its gene product is believed to be a tumor suppressor and is able to stimulate specific GTPases. Hamartin coded by the gene TSC1 functions as a facilitator of Hsp90 in chaperoning of Tuberin, therefore preventing its ubiquitination and degradation in the proteasome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms of the protein. Mutations in TSC2 can cause Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, a dis… each state is divided into congressional
