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]

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

This sequence change replaces lysine with asparagine at codon 230 of the EPCAM protein (p.Lys230Asn). The lysine residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between lysine and asparagine. This variant is not present in population databases and has not been reported in the literature. 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, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies.  Furthermore, The asparagine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. In summary, this is a novel missense change that is not predicted to affect protein function or cause disease. However the evidence is insufficient at this time to prove that conclusively. It has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

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

The p.K230N variant (also known as c.690A>C), located in coding exon 7 of the EPCAM gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 690. The lysine at codon 230 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
