摘要
This work describes the identification of two subjects with young-age iron overload carrying new causative mutations in transferrin receptor-2 gene. One was compound heterozygous (Asn411del/Ala444Thr) and the second was homozygous for a mutation affecting RNA splicing (IVS17+5636G>A). Another mutation (His33Asn) and a polymorphism were found in a group of 50 controls.
