Genes affected
HAMP (HGNC:15598): (hepcidin antimicrobial peptide) The product encoded by this gene is involved in the maintenance of iron homeostasis, and it is necessary for the regulation of iron storage in macrophages, and for intestinal iron absorption. The preproprotein is post-translationally cleaved into mature peptides of 20, 22 and 25 amino acids, and these active peptides are rich in cysteines, which form intramolecular bonds that stabilize their beta-sheet structures. These peptides exhibit antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi. Mutations in this gene cause hemochromatosis type 2B, also known as juvenile hemochromatosis, a disease caused by severe iron overload that results in cardiomyopathy, cirrhosis, and endocrine failure.

Variant summary: HAMP c.175C>G (p.Arg59Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.1e-05 in 251488 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in HAMP causing Hemochromatosis Type 2B (9.1e-05 vs 0.0011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.175C>G has been reported in the literature as a variant in HAMP as a modifier gene that increases the phenotypic expression of the HFE p.C282Y homozygous genotype (Jacolot_2004) and has been subsequently reported with a non-informative genotype and an unclear association with primary iron overload (example, Santos_2011) with citations by others (example, Nemeth_2006, Castiella_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hemochromatosis Type 2B. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Hereditary hemochromatosis Uncertain:1

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 59 of the HAMP protein (p.Arg59Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs779021719, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with elevated iron indices and/or hemochromotosis (PMID: 14670915, 19787796, 21411349). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 241375). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
