Genes affected
ABCC6 (HGNC:57): (ATP binding cassette subfamily C member 6) The 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). The encoded protein, a member of the MRP subfamily, is involved in multi-drug resistance. Mutations in this gene cause pseudoxanthoma elasticum. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different proteins have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Arg1164X variant in ABCC6 has been previously reported in the homozygous s tate in one family with Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum (PXE; Struk 2000) and in 2 hete rozygous individuals with PXE in which another variant was not identified (Melon i 2001, Chassaing 2004). This variant has also been identified in 0.05% (4/8652 ) East Asian chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (http://exac.broadi nstitute.org/; dbSNP rs72653744). Although this variant has been seen in the gen eral population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive c arrier frequency. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon a t position 1164, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Co mplete loss of ABCC6 function is an established disease mechanism for PXE. In su mmary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for PXE in an autosomal recessive manner (www.partners.org/personalizedmedicine/lmm). -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1164*) in the ABCC6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ABCC6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11536079, 17617515). This variant is present in population databases (rs72653744, gnomAD 0.07%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PMID: 11179012, 11439001). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6572). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The ABCC6 c.3490C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg1164*). This variant has been reported to be causative for autosomal recessive pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE; Struk et al. 2000. PubMed ID: 10954200; Meloni et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11439001; Boraldi et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34205333; Table S1, Saeidian et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 34906475). This variant has also been reported in an individual with acute aortic dissection (Table 1, Zheng et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30056620). This variant is reported in 0.065% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in ABCC6 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
