(a) SNVs and INDELs in TSC2 and TSC1 (each mutation shown only once per patient). (b) Large TSC2 deletion in 10-RA1 identified by SNP array. Black dots: log-R ratios (LRR) of probe intensities; lower panel: magnification of boxed region. (c) Intragenic TSC2 deletion in 63-UG1 identified by targeted sequencing; grey bars: read counts along TSC2; blue bars: exons. (d) Blue bars: large deletions in TSC2. X-axis is broken to accommodate 32-SEGA1 deletion. (e,f) Example CN-LOH events as involving TSC1 on chromosome 9q in 38-SEGA1 (e) and TSC2 on chromosome 16p in 27-SEGA1 (f). (g) Percentage of 66 TSC patients with a mutation in TSC1, TSC2 or neither (NMI). (h) Percentage of tumours with 1 or 2 TSC1/TSC2 mutations identified. (i) Percentage of TSC1/TSC2 mutant tumours with 2 hits. Only 1-hit lesions with all 3 DNA platforms completed included (Supplementary Data 2). (j) Percentage of germline and somatic TSC1/TSC2 mutations of each type. (k) Total number of TSC1/TSC2 mutations of each class for each lesion type. (l) Combinations of mutations in TSC1 and TSC2 mutant tumours. (m,n) Relative TSC2 (m) and TSC1 (n) mRNA expression in non-TSC tissues (n=11) and TSC lesions grouped by mutational status (TSC2 mutation: 1 (n=11) or 2 (n=14); TSC1 mutation: 1 (n=2) or 2 (n=3)). FDR-adjusted P values from individual Welch’s t-tests: **P<0.01; *P<0.05). Open circles represent individual tumours and bars represent mean and s.d. CN-LOH, copy-neutral loss-of-heterozygosity; CPM, counts per million; DEL, deletion; FS, frameshift; IFD, in-frame deletion; MS, missense; Mut, mutation; NMI, no mutation identified; NS, nonsense; SPL, splicing.
