Abstract excerpt
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations to the TSC1 and TSC2 tumour suppressor genes. We detected two sequence changes involving the TSC2 stop codon and investigated the effects of these changes on the expression of tuberin, the TSC2 gene product, and on the binding between tuberin and the TSC1 gene product, hamartin. While elongation of the tuberin open reading...
