Abstract
⺠The substrate of ABCC6 preventing soft tissue calcification is not known. ⺠It was proposed that vitamin K3-glutathione conjugate is the physiological substrate. ⺠We tested VK3GS transport by several assay systems. ⺠We found that this conjugate is not a substrate of ABCC6. ⺠Vitamin K3-glutathione conjugate may not prevent pseudoxanthoma-related symptoms.
