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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.48).
BP6
Variant 2-47377009-T-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-47377009-T-C is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 132761.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0247 (3759/152270) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0368 (2503/68012). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0356. There are 78 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 1894 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 78 AR,AD gene
