Abstrakt: Recently various new gene defects have been identified which explain some previously unknown causes of inherited microcytic anaemias. These defects are located in genes that encode for the cellular iron importing protein Divalent Metal Transporter 1 (DMT1), the iron exporting protein ferroportin, the mitochondrial enzyme glutaredoxin-5 and the hepatocyte membrane protein matriptase-2.
