Abcb10, member 10 of the ABC transporter family, is reportedly a part of a complex in the mitochondrial inner membrane with mitoferrin-1 (Slc25a37) and ferrochelatase (Fech) and is responsible for heme biosynthesis in utero. However, it is unclear whether loss of Abcb10 causes pathological changes in adult mice. Here, we show that Abcb10(-/-) mice lack heme biosynthesis and erythropoiesis abilities and die in midgestation. Moreover, we generated Abcb10(F/-); Mx1-Cre mice, with Abcb10 in hematopoietic cells deleted, which showed accumulation of protoporphyrin IX and maturation arrest in reticulocytes. Electron microscopy images of Abcb10(-/-) hematopoietic cells showed a marked increase of iron deposits at the mitochondria. These results suggest a critical role for Abcb10 in heme biosynthesis and provide new insights into the pathogenesis of erythropoietic protoporphyria and sideroblastic anemia.
