  • Patent number: 8252578
    Abstract: Isolated fragments of the HFE2A protein able to bind and modulate HFE2A and other proteins, such as hepcidin, involved in the iron metabolism pathway are disclosed, such fragments being of molecular weight of approximately 7 kDa to 43 kDa. Also disclosed are corresponding isolated polynucleotides encoding the fragments of the HFE2A protein. The invention includes derivatives and analogs of the polypeptide fragments of HFE2A, along with compositions of these, that are functionally active, i.e. capable of interacting with the HFE2A, as well as methods of production of the HFE2A cleavage products, derivatives and analogs, e.g. by recombinant means. Methods for identifying modulators of HFE2A, comprising contacting a test compound with HFE2A and determining a change in HFE2A activity due to the compound, are provided.
