A novel SLC40A1 p.Y333H mutation with gain of function of ferroportin: A recurrent cause of haemochromatosis in China
30 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Haemochromatosis type 4, also known as ferroportin disease, is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder caused by pathogenic mutations in the SLC40A1 gene, which encodes ferroportin 1 (FPN1). We have identified a novel SLC40A1 p.Y333H mutation in our previous study. In the present study, we tried to investigate the frequency and pathogenicity of the SLC40A1 p.Y333H mutation in haemochromatosis in...
