http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/17942075http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), a heritable multi-system disorder manifesting with ectopic mineralization of soft connective tissues, is caused by mutations in the ABCC6/MRP6 gene/protein system, but the mechanisms how the ABCC6 mutations lead to aberrant mineralization are currently unknown. In this study, we utilized a transgenic mouse model, Abcc6-/-, to examine the mineralization processes. We focused on matrix gla protein (MGP) which has been shown to be critical, when activated by gamma-carboxylation of glutamyl residues, for prevention of unwanted mineralization. The concentration of MGP in the serum of Abcc6-/-mice was significantly reduced when compared to wild-type controls (p<0.004). More importantly, MGP isolated from the liver of Abcc6-/-mice was largely under-carboxylated and therefore possesses no activity. Finally, examination of the Abcc6-/-mice revealed association of total and under-carboxylated forms of MGP with ectopic mineralization while the gamma-carboxylated form was essentially absent. These results suggest that MGP in Abcc6-/-mice is largely in inactive form and is unable to prevent the unwanted mineralization of connective tissues in PXE."xsd:string
