Background: TSC2

Tuberous sclerosis complex-2 (TCS2 also known as Tuberin) is a tumor suppressor that forms a complex with TSC1 (Hamartin ) and this complex is known to control various cellular functions including cell cycle, endocytosis, adhesion, and transcription (1). The C-terminal region of TSC2 contains a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) domain which interacts with Rap1, Rab5 and Rheb (2). The TSC1/TSC2 complex inhibits phosphorylation of S6kinase and 4E-BP1 through inactivation of mTOR (3). Additionally, binding of 14-3-3 beta to TSC2 at Ser1210 reduce the ability of the complex to inhibit phosphorylation of S6 kinase (4). Phosphorylation by ATK at Ser924 and Thr1518 inactivates TSC2 and disrupts its interaction with TSC1 (5). Tuberous sclerosis (TSC), an autosomal dominant disorder that affects 1 in 6000 individuals, is caused by a mutation in either the TSC1 or TSC2 tumor suppressor gene.
