VUS: BP4 (supporting) is met because SpliceAI maximum delta is 0.001, below the <=0.1 threshold.
AXIN2 is a scaffolding protein that helps regulate the Wnt signaling pathway, a key developmental pathway controlling cell growth and fate. It is part of the beta-catenin destruction complex, where it helps mark beta-catenin for degradation when Wnt signaling is off, and it also assists in relaying Wnt signals to the nucleus when the pathway is active. AXIN2 acts as a tumor suppressor, and mutations in the gene have been linked to colorectal cancer as well as familial tooth agenesis with predisposition to colorectal cancer. Its expression has also been associated with prostate cancer recurrence.
This AXIN2 intronic variant lies in a gene encoding a Wnt-pathway scaffolding tumor suppressor associated with colorectal cancer and familial tooth agenesis with colorectal cancer predisposition.
