Abstract
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic disease associated with epilepsy and autism. Dysregulated protein synthesis has been implicated as a cause of this disease. However, cell type-specific translational profiles that are aberrant in this disease are unknown. Here we show that expression of many stress and/or activity-dependent proteins is highly induced while some synaptic proteins are repressed in neurons missing the Tsc2 gene expression. Identification of genes whose translation is abnormal in TSC may provide insights to previously unidentified therapeutic targets.
