TSC1
Overview
TSC1 (tuberous sclerosis 1) is a gene that encodes for a protein, hamartin, that interacts with a protein encoded by the TSC2 gene, tuberin (Genetics Home Reference 2013). TSC1 acts as a tumor suppressor, through regulation of the mTOR pathway, which is involved in cell proliferation (Genetics Home Reference 2013; PMID: 21533174). Mutations in TSC1 are observed in bladder cancer (COSMIC; PMID: 22923433; PMID: 21533174).
