Genes affected
ABCB6 (HGNC:47): (ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 6 (LAN blood group)) This gene encodes a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. This protein is a member of the heavy metal importer subfamily and plays a role in porphyrin transport. This gene is the molecular basis of the Langereis (Lan) blood group antigen and mutations in this gene underlie familial pseudohyperkalemia and dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 723 of the ABCB6 protein (p.Arg723Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs148211042, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with familial pseudohyperkalemia (PMID: 24947683, 27151991). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 218181). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ABCB6 function (PMID: 27151991). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The ABCB6 c.2168G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg723Gln. This variant has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals with pseudohyperkalemia and was reported to segregate with disease in four affected individuals in a three generation pedigree (Bawazir et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24947683; Andolfo et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27151991). Functional studies found this variant results in increased potassium efflux (Andolfo et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27151991). This variant is reported in 0.13% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
