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]

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.87).

BP6

Variant 2-47373545-A-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-47373545-A-C is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 136017.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

BP7

Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.11 with no splicing effect.

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000827 (126/152270) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.0193 (100/5188). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0162. There are 2 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 62 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.

BS2

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
