Description
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1339 of the ABCC6 protein (p.Arg1339His). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individuals with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PMID: 16086317, 18157818). This variant is also known as p.R1339Q. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265021). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ABCC6 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg1339 amino acid residue in ABCC6. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16086317, 19339160, 27994049). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
