Genes affected

AXIN2 (HGNC:904): (axin 2) The Axin-related protein, Axin2, presumably plays an important role in the regulation of the stability of beta-catenin in the Wnt signaling pathway, like its rodent homologs, mouse conductin/rat axil. In mouse, conductin organizes a multiprotein complex of APC (adenomatous polyposis of the colon), beta-catenin, glycogen synthase kinase 3-beta, and conductin, which leads to the degradation of beta-catenin. Apparently, the deregulation of beta-catenin is an important event in the genesis of a number of malignancies. The AXIN2 gene has been mapped to 17q23-q24, a region that shows frequent loss of heterozygosity in breast cancer, neuroblastoma, and other tumors. Mutations in this gene have been associated with colorectal cancer with defective mismatch repair. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: AXIN2 c.2182G>A (p.Ala728Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was observed with an allele frequency of 0.00025 in 277138 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The observed variant frequency within African control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.8-fold higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in AXIN2 causing Colorectal Cancer phenotype (0.00014), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in population(s) of African origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2182G>A in individuals affected with Colorectal Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. A ClinVar submission from a clinical diagnostic laboratory (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as "uncertain significance." Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS - possibly benign. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The AXIN2 c.2182G>A (p.Ala728Thr) variant has not been reported as a germline variant in individuals with AXIN2-related conditions in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00024 (6/24958 chromosomes in African/African American subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Significance: Benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Oligodontia-cancer predisposition syndrome

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 728 of the AXIN2 protein (p.Ala728Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs141260153, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with AXIN2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 464597). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The threonine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
