HAMP / Unconjugated / 1F9
Product Details
| Description | Hepcidin, an human antimicrobial peptide, contains a leader sequence, a proteolysis site and a C-terminal 25 amino acid active peptide. This peptide is most active against gram-positive bacteria, but also inhibits the growth of certain yeast and gram-negative bacteria. HAMP also functions as a signaling molecule involved in the maintenance of iron homeostasis. In conjugation with HFE it seems to regulate both intestinal iron absorption and iron storage in macrophages. | |

About HAMP
The product encoded by this gene is involved in the maintenance of iron homeostasis, and it is necessary for the regulation of iron storage in macrophages, and for intestinal iron absorption. The preproprotein is post-translationally cleaved into mature peptides of 20, 22 and 25 amino acids, and these active peptides are rich in cysteines, which form intramolecular bonds that stabilize their beta-sheet structures. These peptides exhibit antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi. Mutations in this gene cause hemochromatosis type 2B, also known as juvenile hemochromatosis, a disease caused by severe iron overload that results in cardiomyopathy, cirrhosis, and endocrine failure.
