MeSH definition : A membrane protein and MHC class I antigen. It contains an IMMUNOGLOBULIN C1-SET DOMAIN
and interacts with BETA 2-MICROGLOBULIN. It may also regulate the interaction of TRANSFERRIN
with the TRANSFERRIN RECEPTOR. Mutations in the HFE gene are associated with cases
of FAMILIAL HEMOCHROMATOSIS.;
