Target

Full Name
Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule
Introduction
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.
Entrez Gene ID
4072
UniProt ID
P16422
Alternative Names
Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule; Tumor-Associated Calcium Signal Transducer 1; Major Gastrointestinal Tumor-Associated Protein GA733-2; Adenocarcinoma-Associated Antigen; Cell Surface Glycoprotein Trop-1; Epithelial Glycoprotein 314; TACSTD1; EGP314; MIC18; TROP1; M4S1; KSA; Membrane Component, Chromosome 4, Surface Marker (35kD Glycoprotein); Antigen Identified By Monoclonal Antibody AUA1; Human Epithelial Glycoprotein-2; Epithelial Cell Surface Antigen;
Research Area
May act as a physical homophilic interaction molecule between intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) at the mucosal epithelium for providing immunological barrier as a first line of defense against mucosal infection. Plays a role in embryonic stem cells proliferation and differentiation. Up-regulates the expression of FABP5, MYC and cyclins A and E.

Involvement in disease
Diarrhea 5, with tufting enteropathy, congenital (DIAR5):
An intractable diarrhea of infancy characterized by villous atrophy and absence of inflammation, with intestinal epithelial cell dysplasia manifesting as focal epithelial tufts in the duodenum and jejunum.
Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer 8 (HNPCC8):
The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. HNPCC8 results from heterozygous deletion of 3-prime exons of EPCAM and intergenic regions directly upstream of MSH2, resulting in transcriptional read-through and epigenetic silencing of MSH2 in tissues expressing EPCAM. An autosomal dominant disease associated with marked increase in cancer susceptibility. It is characterized by a familial predisposition to early-onset colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and extra-colonic tumors of the gastrointestinal, urological and female reproductive tracts. HNPCC is reported to be the most common form of inherited colorectal cancer in the Western world. Clinically, HNPCC is often divided into two subgroups. Type I is characterized by hereditary predisposition to colorectal cancer, a young age of onset, and carcinoma observed in the proximal colon. Type II is characterized by increased risk for cancers in certain tissues such as the uterus, ovary, breast, stomach, small intestine, skin, and larynx in addition to the colon. Diagnosis of classical HNPCC is based on the Amsterdam criteria: 3 or more relatives affected by colorectal cancer, one a first degree relative of the other two; 2 or more generation affected; 1 or more colorectal cancers presenting before 50 years of age; exclusion of hereditary polyposis syndromes. The term 'suspected HNPCC' or 'incomplete HNPCC' can be used to describe families who do not or only partially fulfill the Amsterdam criteria, but in whom a genetic basis for colon cancer is strongly suspected.
Topology
Extracellular: 24-265
Helical: 266-288
Cytoplasmic: 289-314
PTM
Hyperglycosylated in carcinoma tissue as compared with autologous normal epithelia. Glycosylation at Asn-198 is crucial for protein stability.
