TFRC (Transferrin receptor protein 1) variants and mutations

TFRC (also known as Transferrin receptor protein 1) is a human protein-coding gene encoding a transferrin receptor protein 1 protein. Its annotated function is cellular uptake of iron occurs via receptor-mediated endocytosis of ligand-occupied transferrin receptor into specialized endosomes. It is annotated at the cell membrane. This analysis covers 1,156 TFRC variants and mutations. Of these, 73% have computational variant effect predictions. Disease context includes TFRC-related combined immunodeficiency, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and mucopolysaccharidosis type 2. Example TFRC variants include M2I, M2L, and Q4L.
