Missense SLC25A38 variations play an important role in autosomal recessive inherited sideroblastic anemia
(Ferrata Storti Foundation, 2011)
Congenital sideroblastic anemias are rare disorders with several genetic causes; they are characterized by erythroblast mitochondrial iron overload, differ greatly in severity and some occur within a ...
The IronChip evaluation package: a package of perl modules for robust analysis of custom microarrays
(Springer Nature, 2010)
Background: Gene expression studies greatly contribute to our understanding of complex relationships in gene regulatory networks. However, the complexity of array design, production and manipulations ...
Iron regulatory protein-1 and -2: transcriptome-wide definition of binding mRNAs and shaping of the cellular proteome by iron regulatory proteins
(ASH Publications, 2011)
Iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) 1 and 2 are RNA-binding proteins that control cellular iron metabolism by binding to conserved RNA motifs called iron-responsive elements (IREs). The currently known ...
L-ferritin: one gene, five diseases; from hereditary hyperferritinemia to hypoferritinemia - report of new cases
(MDPI, 2019)
Ferritin is a multimeric protein composed of light (L-ferritin) and heavy (H-ferritin) subunits that binds and stores iron inside the cell. A variety of mutations have been reported in the L-ferritin ...
SIREs: searching for iron-responsive elements
(Oxford University Press, 2010-07)
The iron regulatory protein/iron-responsive element regulatory system plays a crucial role in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression and its disruption results in human disease. IREs are ...
The phenotypic spectrum of germline YARS2 variants: from isolated sideroblastic anemia to mitochondrial myopathy, lactic acidosis and sideroblastic anemia 2
(Ferrata Storti Foundation, 2018)
variants have previously been described in patients with myopathy, lactic acidosis and sideroblastic anemia 2 (MLASA2). encodes the mitochondrial tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase, which is responsible for ...
Functional and clinical impact of novel Tmprss6 variants in iron-refractory iron-deficiency anemia patients and genotype–phenotype studies
(Wiley, 2014)
Iron-refractory iron-deficiency anemia (IRIDA) is a rare autosomal-recessive disorder characterized by hypochromic microcytic anemia, low transferrin saturation, and inappropriate high levels of the ...
Iron refractory iron deficiency anemia
(Ferrata-Storti Foundation, 2013)
Iron refractory iron deficiency anemia is a hereditary recessive anemia due to a defect in the TMPRSS6In vitro gene encoding Matriptase-2. This protein is a transmembrane serine protease that plays an ...
Molecular evolution of multiple-level control of heme biosynthesis pathway in animal kingdom
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
Adaptation of enzymes in a metabolic pathway can occur not only through changes in amino acid sequences but also through variations in transcriptional activation, mRNA splicing and mRNA translation. The ...
The actin binding protein profilin 2 is a novel regulator of iron homeostasis
(ASH Publication, 2017)
Cellular iron homeostasis is controlled by the iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) 1 and 2 that bind cis-regulatory iron-responsive elements (IRE) on target messenger RNAs (mRNA). We identified profilin 2 ...
