Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the HJV gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Acts as a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) coreceptor. Through enhancement of BMP signaling regulates hepcidin (HAMP) expression and regulates iron homeostasis. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q7TQ32}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Hemochromatosis 2A (HFE2A) [MIM:602390]: A juvenile form of hemochromatosis, a disorder of iron metabolism with excess deposition of iron in a variety of organs leading to their failure, bronze skin pigmentation, hepatic cirrhosis, arthropathy and diabetes. The most common symptoms of juvenile hemochromatosis at presentation are hypogonadism and cardiomyopathy. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14647275, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14982867, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14982873, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15461631}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
