Genes affected
TFR2 (HGNC:11762): (transferrin receptor 2) This gene encodes a single-pass type II membrane protein, which is a member of the transferrin receptor-like family. This protein mediates cellular uptake of transferrin-bound iron, and may be involved in iron metabolism, hepatocyte function and erythrocyte differentiation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hereditary hemochromatosis type III. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.

Hemochromatosis type 3 Pathogenic:1
Jun 23, 2025
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: TFR2 c.1409G>T (p.Ser470Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Peptidase M28 (IPR007484) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251076 control chromosomes. c.1409G>T has been observed in the homozygous state in individuals affected with Hemochromatosis Type 3 (Khayat_2019, internal data). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29985876). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 577309). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Hereditary hemochromatosis Pathogenic:1
Aug 08, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 470 of the TFR2 protein (p.Ser470Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs772104483, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary hemochromatosis (Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 577309). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt TFR2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
