The regions that have been found to be linked to TSC in different families map to the positions of three enzymes, phenylalanine hydroxylase (12q22-24), tyrosinase (11q14-22), and dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (9q34), all of which are involved in the conversion of phenylalanine to catecholamine neurotransmitters or melanin.

Analysis of the basic genetic defect in tuberous sclerosis would be greatly expedited by definitive determination of the chromosomal location of the TSC gene or genes.

Two-point linkage analysis and multilocus linkage analysis were used to evaluate linkage between tuberous sclerosis and the markers ABO, MCT136, and AblK2.
The question of genetic heterogeneity in tuberous sclerosis (TSC) was addressed by genetic linkage studies in eight affected families using nine polymorphic markers (EFD126.3, MCT136, ABO, ABL, AK1, and MCOA12 from distal 9q, and PBGD, MCT128.1, and 1CJ52.208M from distal 11q).
