Summary
AXIN2 (axin 2, HGNC:904) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17q24.1, encoding Axin-2 (Q9Y2T1). Inhibitor of the Wnt signaling pathway. It is haploinsufficient (ClinGen: sufficient evidence).
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.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Inhibitor of the Wnt signaling pathway. Down-regulates beta-catenin. Probably facilitate the phosphorylation of beta-catenin and APC by GSK3B.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK3B) and beta-catenin. The interaction between axin and beta-catenin occurs via the armadillo repeats contained in beta-catenin. Interacts with SMAD7 and RNF111. Interacts with ANKRD6. Interacts with SIAH1. Interacts with SIAH2.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in brain and lymphoblast.
Post-translational modifications. Probably phosphorylated by GSK3B and dephosphorylated by PP2A. ADP-ribosylated by tankyrase TNKS and TNKS2. Poly-ADP-ribosylated protein is recognized by RNF146, followed by ubiquitination and subsequent activation of the Wnt signaling pathway. Ubiquitinated by RNF146 when poly-ADP-ribosylated, leading to its degradation and subsequent activation of the Wnt signaling pathway. Deubiquitinated by USP34, deubiquitinated downstream of beta-catenin stabilization step: deubiquitination is important Wnt signaling to positively regulate beta-catenin (CTNBB1)-mediated transcription.
Disease relevance. Colorectal cancer (CRC) [MIM:114500] A complex disease characterized by malignant lesions arising from the inner wall of the large intestine (the colon) and the rectum. Genetic alterations are often associated with progression from premalignant lesion (adenoma) to invasive adenocarcinoma. Risk factors for cancer of the colon and rectum include colon polyps, long-standing ulcerative colitis, and genetic family history. The gene represented in this entry is involved in disease pathogenesis. Oligodontia-colorectal cancer syndrome (ODCRCS) [MIM:608615] Affected individuals manifest severe tooth agenesis and colorectal cancer or precancerous lesions of variable types. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. The tankyrase-binding motif (also named TBD) is required for interaction with tankyrase TNKS and TNKS2.
