NM_000548.5:c.3117G>A is a synonymous variant in TSC2. This variant does not alter the amino acid sequence (p.Thr1039=). SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact (max delta 0.09). The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1. In gnomAD v4.1, it is observed at extremely low frequency (AF=0.00155%, 25/1,612,750 alleles, 0 homozygotes) across multiple ancestry groups, with highest subpopulation frequency in Admixed Americans (AF=0.00667%). No statistically significant mutational hotspot or well-characterized functional domain has been identified. OncoKB reports Unknown Oncogenic Effect with no curated literature specific to this variant. COSMIC reports 1 somatic occurrence (COSV113489825). ClinVar reports this variant as Likely benign by 5 clinical laboratories, Benign by 2, and Likely Benign by 1, with criteria provided by single submitters and no expert panel review.1

gene-specific framework lacked a usable explicit final combination framework, so generic ACMG/AMP 2015 final-combination rules were applied as fallback; applied criteria: PM2 supporting, BP4 supporting, BP6 supporting, BP7 supporting; combination = 1 supporting + 3 supporting benign, which maps to Likely Benign.
