Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the ABCB6 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: Binds heme and porphyrins and functions in their ATP- dependent uptake into the mitochondria. Plays a crucial role in heme synthesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10837493, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17006453}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Microphthalmia, isolated, with coloboma, 7 (MCOPCB7) [MIM:614497]: A disorder of eye formation, ranging from small size of a single eye to complete bilateral absence of ocular tissues. Ocular abnormalities like opacities of the cornea and lens, scaring of the retina and choroid, and other abnormalities may also be present. Ocular colobomas are a set of malformations resulting from abnormal morphogenesis of the optic cup and stalk, and the fusion of the fetal fissure (optic fissure). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22226084}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria 3 (DUH3) [MIM:615402]: An autosomal dominant pigmentary genodermatosis characterized by a mixture of hyperpigmented and hypopigmented macules distributed randomly over the body, that appear in infancy or early childhood. The trunk and extremities are the dominant sites of abnormal pigmentation. Facial lesions can be seen in 50% of affected individuals, but involvement of palms and soles is unusual. Abnormalities of hair and nails have also been reported. Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria may be associated with abnormalities of dermal connective tissue, nerve tissue, or other systemic complications. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23519333, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24224009, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24498303, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25288164}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Pseudohyperkalemia, familial, 2, due to red cell leak (PSHK2) [MIM:609153]: A dominantly inherited condition characterized by increased serum potassium levels, measured in whole-blood specimens stored at or below room temperature. This condition is not accompanied by clinical symptoms or biological signs except for borderline abnormalities of red cell shape. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23180570, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24947683}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
