Summary

SLC40A1 (solute carrier family 40 member 1, HGNC:10909) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2q32.2, encoding Ferroportin (Q9NP59). Transports Fe(2+) from the inside of a cell to the outside of the cell, playing a key role for maintaining systemic iron homeostasis.

The protein encoded by this gene is a cell membrane protein that may be involved in iron export from duodenal epithelial cells. Defects in this gene are a cause of hemochromatosis type 4 (HFE4).

Function. Transports Fe(2+) from the inside of a cell to the outside of the cell, playing a key role for maintaining systemic iron homeostasis. Transports iron from intestinal, splenic, hepatic cells, macrophages and erythrocytes into the blood to provide iron to other tissues. Controls therefore dietary iron uptake, iron recycling by macrophages and erythrocytes, and release of iron stores in hepatocytes. 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.

Subunit / interactions. Identified in a complex with STOM. Interacts with HAMP; affinity of the peptide hormone HAMP for SLC40A1 increases by 80-fold in the presence of iron and the interaction promotes SLC40A1 ubiquitination and degradation. Part of a complex composed of SLC40A1/ferroportin, TF/transferrin and HEPH/hephaestin that transfers iron from cells to transferrin.

Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Basolateral cell membrane.

Tissue specificity. Detected in erythrocytes (at protein level). Expressed in placenta, intestine, muscle and spleen. Highly expressed in mature red blood.

Post-translational modifications. Polyubiquitinated by RNF217; leading to proteasomal degradation. Under conditions of high systemic iron levels, both the hormone peptide hepcidin/HAMP and holo(iron bound)-transferrin/TF induce the ubiquitination, internalization and proteasomal degradation of SLC40A1 to control iron release from cells.

Disease relevance. Hemochromatosis 4 (HFE4) [MIM:606069] A disorder of iron metabolism characterized by iron overload. Excess iron is deposited in a variety of organs leading to their failure, and resulting in serious illnesses including cirrhosis, hepatomas, diabetes, cardiomyopathy, arthritis, and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. Severe effects of the disease usually do not appear until after decades of progressive iron loading. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Similarity. Belongs to the ferroportin (FP) (TC 2.A.100) family. SLC40A subfamily.
