Type:

TSC2 is a tumor suppressor gene as well as a disease-causing gene for autosomal dominant disorder tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).

TSC1 (hamartin) and TSC2 (tuberin) form a complex that plays a critical role in regulating the mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin) pathway.
• The TSC1/TSC2 complex acts as a negative regulator of mTOR signaling; when active, it helps suppress cell growth and proliferation.

TSC1 and TSC2 serve as tumor suppressors.
TSC1 and TSC2 are not overexpressed in cancer; they are typically involved in loss-of-function scenarios that lead to tumorigenesis.
