Introduction | The type I transmembrane glycoprotein EpCAM consists of two epidermal growth factor-like extracellular domains, a cysteine-poor region, a transmembrane domain, and a short cytoplasmic tail. EpCAM is encoded by the GA733-2 gene located on the long arm of chromosome 4. EpCAM has been described by various names, including those associated with monoclonal antibodies specific for the cell surface antigen (MH99, AUA1, MOC31, 323/A3, kS1/4, GA733, and HEA125) and cDNA clones used to define the antigen kS 1/4, EGP, EGP40, and GA733-2. |

Specificity | It is a cocktail of four highly specific monoclonal antibodies (EGP40/826, EGP40/837, EGP40/1110, EGP40/1120) that recognize extracellular as well as intracellular domains of the epithelial cellular adhesion molecule (Ep-CAM). It is a 40-43kDa transmembrane epithelial glycoprotein, identified as epithelial specific antigen (ESA), or Ep-CAM. Ep-CAM is expressed on baso-lateral cell surface in most simple epithelia and a vast majority of carcinomas. This epithelial antigen plays an important role as a tumor-cell marker in lymph nodes from patients with esophageal carcinoma otherwise classified as node-negative. Epithelial antigen has also been suggested as a discriminator between basal cell and baso-squamous carcinomas, and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. |
