Genes affected

HFE (HGNC:4886): (homeostatic iron regulator) The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane protein that is similar to MHC class I-type proteins and associates with beta2-microglobulin (beta2M). It is thought that this protein functions to regulate iron absorption by regulating the interaction of the transferrin receptor with transferrin. The iron storage disorder, hereditary haemochromatosis, is a recessive genetic disorder that results from defects in this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

HFE links:

H2BC4 (HGNC:4757): (H2B clustered histone 4) Histones are basic nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. The linker histone, H1, interacts with linker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in the compaction of chromatin into higher order structures. The protein has antibacterial and antifungal antimicrobial activity. The main transcript variant of this gene is intronless and encodes a replication-dependent histone that is a member of the histone H2B family. This transcript variant lacks a polyA tail but instead contains a palindromic termination element. This gene is found in the large histone gene cluster on chromosome 6.

Hereditary hemochromatosis

Pathogenic:1

Jun 21, 2016

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, truncating variants in HFE are known to contribute to hemochromatosis when homozygous or present with a second pathogenic allele in HFE (PMID: 9482913, 10557317, 10381492, 24920245, 10930379). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal at codon 298 (p.Glu298*) of the HFE gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product.

Hemochromatosis type 1

Pathogenic:1

Apr 25, 2023

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp

Significance:Likely pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: HFE c.892G>T (p.Glu298X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay. Other truncations have been cited in association with Hemochromatosis in HGMD. The variant was absent in 251016 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.892G>T in individuals affected with Hemochromatosis Type 1 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, classifying the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
