| Gene |
HFE |
| Chromosomal Location |
6p22.2 |
| Allelic Variant 1 |
613609.0001; HEMOCHROMATOSIS |
| Identified Mutation |
CYS282TYR; A missense mutation caused by a G-to-A transition at nucleotide position 845 results in a cysteine to tyrosine transition at codon position 282 [cys282tyr (C282Y)] in the HFE gene. |
| Remarks |
Clinically normal; father of 3 affected sons; affected son is GM14653; 1 allele carries the Cys282Tyr mutation (C282Y) of the HFE (HLA-H) gene, second allele is negative for C282Y and H63D (His63Asp) mutations |
