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]
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.

Variant summary: HFE c.381A>C (p.Gln127His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251422 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.381A>C has been reported in the literature in a compound heterozygous individual affected with Hemochromatosis Type 1 (de Villiers_1999). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 10401000). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
