Genes affected

ABCB4 (HGNC:45): (ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 4) The membrane-associated protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the MDR/TAP subfamily. Members of the MDR/TAP subfamily are involved in multidrug resistance as well as antigen presentation. This gene encodes a full transporter and member of the p-glycoprotein family of membrane proteins with phosphatidylcholine as its substrate. The function of this protein has not yet been determined; however, it may involve transport of phospholipids from liver hepatocytes into bile. Alternative splicing of this gene results in several products of undetermined function. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 30, 2024	This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 320 of the ABCB4 protein (p.Ser320Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs72552778, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of autosomal recessive progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 (PMID: 11313316, 32893960). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13690). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on ABCB4 protein function. Studies have shown that this missense change alters ABCB4 gene expression (PMID: 24806754). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Apr 28, 2017	Across a selection of the available literature, the ABCB4 c.959C>T (p.Ser320Phe) missense variant has been identified in a homozygous state in four patients with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, in a homozygous state in one patient with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3, in a homozygous state in one patient with low phospholipid associated cholelithiasis, and in a compound heterozygotes state in seven patients with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 (Rosmorduc et al. 2001; Rosmorduc et al. 2003; Pauli-Magnus et al. 2004; Keitel et al. 2006; Degiorgio et al. 2007; Colombo et al. 2011; Oliveira et al. 2016). The p.Ser320Phe variant was absent from 630 controls and is reported at a frequency of 0.00020 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Transfection of the p.Ser320Phe variant into HEK293T and MDCK-II cells showed that the variant protein had similar activity as compared to wild type, however the expression levels were slightly reduced (Kim et al. 2013; Andress et al. 2014; Gordo-Gilart et al. 2016). Based on the evidence, the p.Ser320Phe variant is classified as pathogenic for ABCB4-related intrahepatic cholestasis. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

The ABCB4 c.959C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser320Phe. This variant has been reported in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in several individuals with cholestasis phenotypes (see for example, Rosmorduc et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11313316; Keitel et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16890614; Degiorgio et al. 2007 PubMed ID: 17726488). In vitro functional assessment has been inconclusive (Kim et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 24381502; Andress et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24806754; Gordo-Gilart et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26153658). This variant is reported in 0.029% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -

Variant summary: ABCB4 c.959C>T (p.Ser320Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter type 1, transmembrane domain (IPR011527) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00016 in 251176 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ABCB4 causing Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis (0.00016 vs 0.0022), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.959C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis (example: Rosmmorduc_2001 and de Vries_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The Ser320Phe variant in ABCB4 has been reported in 9 heterozygous, 6 homozygous, and 4 compound heterozygous individuals with cholestatic liver disease (Andress 2014, Poupon 2013, Wendum 2012, Bacq 2009, Degiorgio 2007, Colombo 2011, Rosmorduc 2001, Pauli-Magnus 2004, Zimmer 2009, Keitel 2006). This variant has been identified in 1/8600 of European American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbSNP rs72552778). Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, conservation and PolyPhen2) do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In vitro assays suggest the Ser320Phe variant may affect protein function (Andress 2014, Kim 2013); however these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of the Ser320Phe variant is uncertain. -
