About Tsc2

Summary

Enables GTPase activator activity and protein N-terminus binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cell population proliferation; negative regulation of signal transduction; and regulation of neuron projection development. Acts upstream of or within cell projection organization and negative regulation of cell size. Located in several cellular components, including caveola; growth cone; and neuronal cell body. Part of protein-containing complex. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Used to study autism spectrum disorder; hepatic angiomyolipoma; and renal cell carcinoma. Biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatic angiomyolipoma; lymphangioleiomyomatosis; medulloblastoma; tuberous sclerosis; and tuberous sclerosis 2. Orthologous to human TSC2 (TSC complex subunit 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
