Hemochromatosis
Hemochromatosis
Hereditary hemochromatosis (HHC) is an inherited disorder of abnormal iron metabolism. Hereditary hemochromatosis is mainly caused by a defect in the HFE gene, which helps regulate the amount of iron absorbed from food. The three main mutations of HFE are C282Y, H63D and S65C. C282Y is the most frequent. Experteam offers a system for molecular analysis of these three main polymorphisms (C282Y,H-63D,S65C) of the HFE gene using real time PCR.
