| Abstract | Inactivating mutations in the TSC2 gene, consisting of 41coding exons in 40 kb on 16p13, cause the hamartoma syndrome tuberous sclerosis. During TSC2 mutational analysis we identified ten SNPs that occur within or close to exon boundaries at minor allele frequencies greater than 5%. We determined the haplotypes for six of these SNPs and the microsatellite marker kg8 in the 3′ region of TSC2 in a set of 40 parent-child trios. The most common haplotypes accounted for 53%, 11%, 6%, and 5% of chromosomes. Thirty-eight TSC2 mutation-bearing haplotypes had a similar distribution, indicating that there was no haplotype that predisposed to mutation in this region of TSC2. Family analysis was possible in 12 sporadic cases, and indicated that the mother was the parent of origin in 7 cases (3 point mutations, 2 small deletions, 2 large deletions), while the father was in 5 cases (2 point mutations, 3 small deletions). We conclude that TSC2 mutations occur at substantial frequency on both the maternally and paternally derived TSC2 alleles, in contrast to many other genetic diseases including NF1. The observations have implications for genetic counseling in TSC. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
