Secondary Accession Numbers
  • 14410
Name Hemojuvelin
Synonyms
  1. Hemochromatosis type 2 protein
  2. RGM domain family member C
Gene Name HFE2
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function Member of the repulsive guidance molecule (RGM) family. Involved in iron metabolism. Acts as a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) coreceptor. Enhancement of BMP signaling regulates hepcidin (HAMP) expression and iron metabolism. May cooperate with hepcidin to restrict iron absorption in the gut. Could represent the cellular receptor for hepcidin
