| − | HFE is named after '''H'''igh '''Fe''' (iron). | + | HFE is named after '''H'''igh '''Fe''' (iron), and unusually is not named after its associated disease [[hemochromatosis]] that led to the genes identification. The gene products known function is to regulate iron absorption by interacting with the transferrin receptor (TfR). Both HFE and transferrin (Tf) compete with each other for binding to the receptor (TfR)<ref>Lebrón, J. A., West Jr, A. P., & Bjorkman, P. J. (1999). The hemochromatosis protein HFE competes with transferrin for binding to the transferrin receptor. Journal of molecular biology, 294(1), 239-245.</ref>. Tf binds to iron in the form of diferric transferrin (Fe-Tf or holo-Tf<ref>The holo- prefix refers to a protein bound to its [[ligand]]. apo- is the unbound form of the protein.</ref>) and in turn binds to free TfR which imports the iron into the cell by an endocytosis cycle<ref>Qian, Z. M., Li, H., Sun, H., & Ho, K. (2002). Targeted drug delivery via the transferrin receptor-mediated endocytosis pathway. Pharmacological reviews, 54(4), 561-587.</ref>. The peptide hormone hepcidin is produced in the liver, increased hepcidin levels inhibit iron uptake by degrading the ferroportin (Fpn) iron exporter to the blood. Unbound HFE in the presence of holo-Tf also induces higher transcription levels of hepcidin via an unclear mechanism<ref>Gao, J., Chen, J., Kramer, M., Tsukamoto, H., Zhang, A. S., & Enns, C. A. (2009). Interaction of the hereditary hemochromatosis protein HFE with transferrin receptor 2 is required for transferrin-induced hepcidin expression. Cell metabolism, 9(3), 217-227.</ref>. When the normal function of HFE is disrupted by mutation the result can be HFE hereditary [[hemochromatosis]] or toxic iron overload. |

HFE is named after High Fe (iron), and unusually is not named after its associated disease hemochromatosis that led to the genes identification. The gene products known function is to regulate iron absorption by interacting with the transferrin receptor (TfR). Both HFE and transferrin (Tf) compete with each other for binding to the receptor (TfR)[1]. Tf binds to iron in the form of diferric transferrin (Fe-Tf or holo-Tf[2]) and in turn binds to free TfR which imports the iron into the cell by an endocytosis cycle[3]. The peptide hormone hepcidin is produced in the liver, increased hepcidin levels inhibit iron uptake by degrading the ferroportin (Fpn) iron exporter to the blood. Unbound HFE in the presence of holo-Tf also induces higher transcription levels of hepcidin via an unclear mechanism[4]. When the normal function of HFE is disrupted by mutation the result can be HFE hereditary hemochromatosis or toxic iron overload.
