Variants pathogenicity by type
Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the ABCB4 gene is commonly pathogenic or not.
In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.
Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

- Function
- FUNCTION: Energy-dependent phospholipid efflux translocator that acts as a positive regulator of biliary lipid secretion. Functions as a floppase that translocates specifically phosphatidylcholine (PC) from the inner to the outer leaflet of the canalicular membrane bilayer into the canaliculi of hepatocytes. Translocation of PC makes the biliary phospholipids available for extraction into the canaliculi lumen by bile salt mixed micelles and therefore protects the biliary tree from the detergent activity of bile salts (PubMed:7957936, PubMed:8898203, PubMed:9366571, PubMed:17523162, PubMed:23468132, PubMed:24806754, PubMed:24723470, PubMed:24594635, PubMed:21820390). Plays a role in the recruitment of phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and sphingomyelin (SM) molecules to nonraft membranes and to fu rther enrichment of SM and cholesterol in raft membranes in hepatocytes (PubMed:23468132). Required for proper phospholipid bile formation (By similarity). Indirectly involved in cholesterol efflux activity from hepatocytes into the canalicular lumen in the presence of bile salts in an ATP- dependent manner (PubMed:24045840). Promotes biliary phospholipid secretion as canaliculi-containing vesicles from the canalicular plasma membrane (PubMed:9366571, PubMed:28012258). In cooperation with ATP8B1, functions to protect hepatocytes from the deleterious detergent activity of bile salts (PubMed:21820390). Does not confer multidrug resistance (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21440, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17523162, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21820390, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23468132, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24045840, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24594635, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24723470, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24806754, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28012258, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7957936, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8898203, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9366571}.;

- DISEASE: Cholestasis, progressive familial intrahepatic, 3 (PFIC3) [MIM:602347]: A disorder characterized by early onset of cholestasis that progresses to hepatic fibrosis, cirrhosis, and end-stage liver disease before adulthood. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11313315, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12671900, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17726488, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21119540, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24045840, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24594635, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24806754, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28012258, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9419367}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Cholestasis of pregnancy, intrahepatic 3 (ICP3) [MIM:614972]: A liver disorder of pregnancy. It presents during the second or, more commonly, the third trimester of pregnancy with intense pruritus which becomes more severe with advancing gestation and cholestasis. It causes fetal distress, spontaneous premature delivery and intrauterine death. Patients have spontaneous and progressive disappearance of cholestasis after delivery. Cholestasis results from abnormal biliary transport from the liver into the small intestine. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10767346, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12746424, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15077010}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Gallbladder disease 1 (GBD1) [MIM:600803]: One of the major digestive diseases. Gallstones composed of cholesterol (cholelithiasis) are the common manifestations in western countries. Most people with gallstones, however, remain asymptomatic through their lifetimes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11313316, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12891548, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22331132, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23533021, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24723470, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28012258, ECO:0000269|Ref.2}.
