Cd is one of the potential toxic elements (PTEs) exerting great threats on the environment and living organisms and arising extensive attentions worldwide.  Sedum alfredii  Hance, a Cd hyperaccumulator, is of great importance in studying the mechanisms of Cd hyperaccumulation and has potentials for phytoremediation. ATP-binding cassette sub-family C (ABCC) belongs to the ABC transporter family, which is deemed to closely associate with multiple physiological processes including cellular homeostasis, metal detoxification, and transport of metabolites. In the present work, ten ABCC proteins were identified in  S. alfredii  Hance, exhibiting uniform domain structure and divergently clustering with those from  Arabidopsis . Tissue-specific expression analysis indicated that some  SaABCC  genes had significantly higher expression in roots ( Sa23221  and  Sa88F144 ), stems ( Sa13F200  and  Sa14F98 ) and leaves ( Sa13F200 ). Co-expression network analysis using these five  SaABCC  genes as hub genes produced two clades harboring different edge genes. Transcriptional expression profiles responsive to Cd illustrated a dramatic elevation of  Sa14F190  and  Sa18F186  genes. Heterologous expression in a Cd-sensitive yeast cell line, we confirmed the functions of  Sa14F190  gene encoding ABCC in Cd accumulation. Our study performed a comprehensive analysis of ABCCs in  S. alfredii  Hance, firstly mapped their tissue-specific expression patterns responsive to Cd stress, and characterized the roles of  Sa14F190  genes in Cd accumulation.
