Abstract excerpt
Genetic hemochromatosis (GH) is a common inherited disease of iron metabolism affecting 2-5 in 1000 individuals of European origin. A candidate gene for GH, namely HFE has been recently characterized. Structural studies of the protein product of the HFE gene are of major interest for a better understanding of the molecular physiopathology in iron overload. We have built a 3-dimensional model of the HFE protein...
