EPCAM 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 EPCAM result in congenital tufting enteropathy.蛋白別名為：EPCAM; GA733-2; M1S2; M4S1; MIC18; TACSTD1; TROP1; Epithelial cell adhesion molecule; Ep-CAM; Adenocarcinoma-associated antigen; Cell surface glycoprotein Trop-1; Epithelial cell surface antigen; Epithelial glycoprotein; EGP; Epithelial gly;基因ID為：4072；蛋白質ID:P16422
