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.

Hereditary hemochromatosis Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 24, 2021This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 17 of the TFR2 gene. While this variant is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it likely alters RNA splicing and results in a disrupted protein product. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary hemochromatosis (PMID: 18245657). This variant is also known as IVS17+5636G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 21371). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
