AXIN2 axin 2

ENSG00000168646 · protein coding · Open Targets profile

Inhibitor of the Wnt signaling pathway. Down-regulates beta- catenin. Probably facilitate the phosphorylation of beta-catenin and APC by GSK3B. .

In 11 of 15 cancers, the evidence for AXIN2 comes mainly from mutations found in tumours

Each row is a cancer, strongest overall evidence first. The two dots show how strong the inherited (germline) and tumour-mutation (somatic) evidence is; the line between them is the gap.

Scores run from 0 (no evidence) to 1 (strongest). A missing dot at 0 means Open Targets holds no evidence of that kind. Source: Open Targets Platform, fetched live.

gnomAD loss of function constraint: o/e 0.2811700105667114 (upper bound 0.4048900008201599). Low values mean loss of function is poorly tolerated, a safety flag for inhibition.
