Hemochromatosis is a genetic disorder, caused by HFE gene on Chromosome 6, in which the body can build up too much iron in the skin, liver, and other parts of the body Too much iron is toxic to the body, and its leads from benign bronzing of skin to fatal Liver cancer and other complications.
find all details of cause, inheritance, genes, proteins, and other details from HFE gene on the chromosome to HFE protein (C282Y and H63D) of Hemochromatosis in this @BiotechReview video
