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]

ENSG00000266076 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.9).
• BP6: Variant 17-65557883-G-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-65557883-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 512736.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=2, Uncertain_significance=1, Benign=1}.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-4.07 with no splicing effect.

Submissions by phenotype

Oligodontia-cancer predisposition syndrome Uncertain:1 Benign:1

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Jun 27, 2024	This variant is considered benign. This variant is a silent/synonymous amino acid change and it is not expected to impact splicing. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Mar 26, 2019	This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with AXIN2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 512736). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects codon 246 of the AXIN2 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the AXIN2 protein. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter

clinical testing

GeneDx

Oct 16, 2017

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter

clinical testing

Ambry Genetics

Aug 21, 2019

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -
