Gene name Homeostatic iron regulator
Gene symbol HFE
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
HFE1HHHLA-HMVCD7TFQTL2
Chromosome 6
Chromosome location 6p22.2
Summary 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 th
