Description
Product Characteristics: SLC40A1, solute carrier family 40 (iron-regulated transporter), member 1, FPN1, HFE4, IREG1, MST079, MTP1, SLC11A3, iron regulated gene 1, putative ferroportin 1 variant IIIB, solute carrier family 11 (proton-coupled divalent metal ion transporters), member 3, solute carrier family 40 member 1
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene is a cell membrane protein that may be involved in iron export from duodenal epithelial cells. Defects in this gene are a cause of hemochromatosis type 4 (HFE4). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
