Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the ABCC6 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: Isoform 1: May participate directly in the active transport of drugs into subcellular organelles or influence drug distribution indirectly. Transports glutathione conjugates as leukotriene-c4 (LTC4) and N-ethylmaleimide S-glutathione (NEM-GS). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11880368}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) [MIM:264800]: A multisystem disorder characterized by accumulation of mineralized and fragmented elastic fibers in the skin, vascular walls, and Burch membrane in the eye. Clinically, patients exhibit characteristic lesions of the posterior segment of the eye including peau d'orange, angioid streaks, and choroidal neovascularizations, of the skin including soft, ivory colored papules in a reticular pattern that predominantly affect the neck and large flexor surfaces, and of the cardiovascular system with peripheral and coronary arterial occlusive disease as well as gastrointestinal bleedings. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10811882, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10835642, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10954200, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11427982, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11536079, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11702217, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11880368, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15086542, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15098239, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15459974, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16086317, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17617515, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19339160, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20034067, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25615550}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Homozygous or compound heterozygous ABCC6 mutations have been found in the overwhelming majority of cases. Individuals carrying heterozygous mutations express limited manifestations of the pseudoxanthoma elasticum phenotype.; DISEASE: Arterial calcification of infancy, generalized, 2 (GACI2) [MIM:614473]: A severe autosomal recessive disorder characterized by calcification of the internal elastic lamina of muscular arteries and stenosis due to myointimal proliferation. The disorder is often fatal within the first 6 months of life because of myocardial ischemia resulting in refractory heart failure. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22209248}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
