Abstract
We identified a Japanese patient with Lynch syndrome with a novel large germline deletion of chromosome 2p16-21, including the EPCAM, MSH2, and KCNK12 genes. The proband was a 46-year-old man with ascending colon cancer. The clinical significance of germline KCNK12 gene deletion, which encodes one of the subfamilies of two-pore-domain potassium channels, is still unknown.
