Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PP3_Strong
The NM_002354.3(EPCAM):c.517C>T(p.Arg173Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000186 in 1,610,398 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R173H) has been classified as Likely benign.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:1
In summary, this is a rare missense change with uncertain impact on protein function. There is no indication that this variant causes disease, but the evidence is insufficient at this time to prove that conclusively. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies. This variant is present in population databases (rs747286107, ExAC 0.006%) but has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a EPCAM-related disease. This sequence change replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 173 of the EPCAM protein (p.Arg173Cys). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between arginine and cysteine. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.R173C variant (also known as c.517C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the EPCAM gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 517. The arginine at codon 173 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. 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. -
