Disease
S40A1_HUMAN SLC40A1-related hemochromatosis;Ferroportin disease. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Function
S40A1_HUMAN Transports Fe(2+) from the inside of a cell to the outside of the cell, playing a key role for maintaining systemic iron homeostasis (PubMed:15692071, PubMed:22178646, PubMed:22682227, PubMed:24304836, PubMed:29237594, PubMed:29599243, PubMed:30247984). Transports iron from intestinal, splenic, hepatic cells, macrophages and erythrocytes into the blood to provide iron to other tissues (By similarity). Controls therefore dietary iron uptake, iron recycling by macrophages and erythrocytes, and release of iron stores in hepatocytes (By similarity). When iron is in excess in serum, circulating HAMP/hepcidin levels increase resulting in a degradation of SLC40A1, thus limiting the iron efflux to plasma (PubMed:22682227, PubMed:29237594, PubMed:32814342).[UniProtKB:Q9JHI9][1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Ferroportin (Fpn) is a transporter that releases ferrous ion (Fe(2+)) from cells and is important for homeostasis of iron in circulation. Export of one Fe(2+) by Fpn is coupled to import of two H(+) to maintain charge balance. Here, we show that human Fpn (HsFpn) binds to and mediates Ca(2+) transport. We determine the structure of Ca(2+)-bound HsFpn and identify a single Ca(2+) binding site distinct from the Fe(2+) binding sites. Further studies validate the Ca(2+) binding site and show that Ca(2+) transport is not coupled to transport of another ion. In addition, Ca(2+) transport is significantly inhibited in the presence of Fe(2+) but not vice versa. Function of Fpn as a Ca(2+) uniporter may allow regulation of iron homeostasis by Ca(2+).
