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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine with valine at codon 278 of the EPCAM protein (p.Ala278Val). The alanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between alanine and valine. 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 (ExAC, <0.01%) but has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a EPCAM-related disease. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.833C>T (p.A278V) alteration is located in exon 7 (coding exon 7) of the EPCAM gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 833, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 278 to be replaced by a valine (V). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
