not provided Uncertain:2Benign:1
The EPCAM p.Ile193Val variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in Cosmic or LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs200676965) and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significane by PreventionGenetics, Fulgent Genetics, Illumina and Invitae). The variant was identified in control databases in 60 of 282506 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002124 (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: European (non-Finnish) in 52 of 128920 chromosomes (freq: 0.000403), African in 7 of 24924 chromosomes (freq: 0.000281) and Latino in 1 of 35426 chromosomes (freq: 0.000028), but was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European (Finnish), Other, or South Asian populations. The p.Ile193 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms however four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. 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 tolerated. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 136027). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EPCAM-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs200676965, gnomAD 0.04%). This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 193 of the EPCAM protein (p.Ile193Val). -

Lynch syndrome 8 Uncertain:2
The EPCAM c.577A>G (p.Ile193Val) missense variant has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.040% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

not specified Uncertain:1
DNA sequence analysis of the EPCAM gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.577A>G, in exon 6 that results in an amino acid change, p.Ile193Val. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.04% in the non-Finnish European sub-population (dbSNP rs200676965). The p.Ile193Val change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the EPCAM protein that is not known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Ile193Val substitution. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with EPCAM-related disorders. Due to insufficient evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Ile193Val change remains unknown at this time. -

EPCAM-related disorder Uncertain:1
The EPCAM c.577A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile193Val. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature in a patient with an EPCAM related disorder. This variant is reported in 0.040% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and has been interpreted as variant of uncertain significance in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/136027/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
