The GNPAT variant rs11558492 (p.D519G) was identified as a novel genetic factor that modifies the iron-overload phenotype in homozygous carriers of the HFE p.C282Y variant. However, the reported effects of the GNPAT p.D519G variant vary among study populations. Here, we investigated the role of GNPAT in iron metabolism using Gnpat-knockout (Gnpat-/- ), Gnpat/Hfe double-knockout (Gnpat-/- Hfe-/- or DKO) mice and...
