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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submittercurationSema4, Sema4Nov 02, 2021- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 07, 2023The p.T308M variant (also known as c.923C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the AXIN2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 923. The threonine at codon 308 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been reported as de novo in a Chinese patient with non-syndromic oligodontia at age 12 (Wong S et al. Arch. Oral Biol., 2014 Mar;59:349-53). This variant has also been reported in two Finnish patients diagnosed with breast cancer before age 50 (Tervasmäki A et al. Int. J. Cancer, 2018 06;142:2286-2292). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Oligodontia-cancer predisposition syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 06, 2024This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 308 of the AXIN2 protein (p.Thr308Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs779083840, gnomAD 0.06%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with non-syndromic oligodontia (PMID: 24581859). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 464647). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
AXIN2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMar 08, 2023The AXIN2 c.923C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr308Met. This variant has been reported de novo in an individual with non-syndromic oligodontia (Wong et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24581859). This variant has also been reported in 2 unrelated individuals with breast cancer and a family history of gastric, uterine, and breast cancer (Table S1, Tervasmäki et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29341116). This variant is reported in 0.057% of alleles in individuals of European (Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/17-63545671-G-A) and is interpreted as uncertain significance (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/464647/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
