Genes affected
HJV (HGNC:4887): (hemojuvelin BMP co-receptor) The product of this gene is involved in iron metabolism. It may be a component of the signaling pathway which activates hepcidin or it may act as a modulator of hepcidin expression. It could also represent the cellular receptor for hepcidin. Two uORFs in the 5' UTR negatively regulate the expression and activity of the encoded protein. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. Defects in this gene are the cause of hemochromatosis type 2A, also called juvenile hemochromatosis (JH). JH is an early-onset autosomal recessive disorder due to severe iron overload resulting in hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism, hepatic fibrosis or cirrhosis and cardiomyopathy, occurring typically before age of 30.

Hemochromatosis type 2A Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 12, 2024Variant summary: HJV c.976C>T (p.Arg326X) results in a premature termination codon located in the last exon, therefore not expected to cause nonsense mediated decay (NMD), but is predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein, removing a large part of the 426 amino acid long protein (InterPro). Truncations downstream of this position have been reported in affected individuals (HGMD). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251340 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.976C>T has been reported in the literature in compound heterozygous individuals affected with Hemochromatosis Type 2A (Papanikolaou_2003, Wallace_2004). These data indicate that the variant is likely associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 18, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg326*) in the HJV gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 101 amino acid(s) of the HJV protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs74315324, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with juvenile hemochromatosis (PMID: 14647275). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2366). This variant disrupts a region of the HJV protein in which other variant(s) (p.Gly336*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 30195625; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
