Genes affected
EPCAM (HGNC:11529): (epithelial cell adhesion molecule) This gene encodes a carcinoma-associated antigen and is a member of a family that includes at least two type I membrane proteins. This antigen is expressed on most normal epithelial cells and gastrointestinal carcinomas and functions as a homotypic calcium-independent cell adhesion molecule. The antigen is being used as a target for immunotherapy treatment of human carcinomas. Mutations in this gene result in congenital tufting enteropathy. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

EPCAM-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 29, 2023The EPCAM c.1A>G variant is predicted to disrupt the translation initiation site (Start loss). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0045% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-47596645-A-G). Other predicted loss-of-function variants have been reported nearby (see, for example, Cheema et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33083013; Zhu et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33240318). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
