[ABCB6_HUMAN] Ocular coloboma;Dyschromatosis universalis;Colobomatous microphthalmia. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. ABCB6 mutations are involved in familial pseudohyperkalemia, a dominantly inherited condition characterized by increased serum potassium levels, measured in whole-blood specimens stored at or below room temperature. This condition is not accompanied by clinical symptoms or biological signs except for borderline abnormalities of red cell shape (PubMed:23180570).[1]
Function
[ABCB6_HUMAN] Binds heme and porphyrins and functions in their ATP-dependent uptake into the mitochondria. Plays a crucial role in heme synthesis.[2][3]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
The human ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCB6 is involved in haem-precursor transport across the mitochondrial membrane. The crystal structure of its nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) has been determined in the apo form and in complexes with ADP, with ADP and Mg(2+) and with ATP at high resolution. The overall structure is L-shaped and consists of two lobes, consistent with other reported NBD structures. Nucleotide binding is mediated by the highly conserved Tyr599 and the Walker A motif, and induces notable structural changes. Structural comparison with other structurally characterized NBDs and full-length ABC transporters gives the first insight into the possible catalytic mechanism of ABCB6 and the role of the N-terminal helix alpha(1) in full-length ABCB6.
