ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To develop and validate a method for mutation screening and prenatal diagnosis of TSC1/TSC2 mutations among patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) by Ion Torrent semiconductor sequencing.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Potential mutations of SC1/TSC2 gene was detected in 2 TSC families and 1 sporadic TSC patient using an Ion Torrent PGM sequencer. Candidate variants were validated by Sanger sequencing. The corresponding site of TSC2 in the fetus of family 2 was also detected with Sanger sequencing.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Ion Torrent semiconductor sequencing has identified a probably pathogenic TSC2 mutation (c.311-312insGCTG) in the patient from family 1, and a probably pathogenic TSC2 mutation (c.1790A>G) in the patient of family 2.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Targeted Ion Torrent PGM sequencing is an accurate and efficient method to detect TSC1/TSC2 mutations in TSC.</p>
