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]

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 206 of the EPCAM protein (p.Asp206Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs367993015, gnomAD 0.05%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EPCAM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239136). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt EPCAM protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

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

The c.616G>A (p.D206N) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the EPCAM gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 616, causing the aspartic acid (D) at amino acid position 206 to be replaced by an asparagine (N). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
