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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 40260). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp663*) in the AXIN2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in AXIN2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15042511, 21416598). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of AXIN2-related conditions (PMID: 21416598). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.W663* variant (also known as c.1989G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the AXIN2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1989. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 7. This alteration has been observed in patients with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with AXIN2-related disease (Marvin ML et al. Am J Med Genet A, 2011 Apr;155A:898-902; Leclerc J et al. Genes Chromosomes Cancer, 2023 Apr;62:210-222). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
