Abstract excerpt
Mutations in ABC subfamily C member 6 (ABCC6) transporter are associated with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), a disease resulting in ectopic mineralization and affecting multiple tissues. A growing number of mutations have been identified in individuals with PXE. For most of these variants, no mechanistic information is available regarding their role in normal and pathophysiologies. To assess how PXE-associated...
