Our knowledge of the role of proteins in cellular processes is continually evolving. Most proteins, including Transferrin are typically involved in one or more signaling pathways or biological processes. Professionally manufactured recombinant proteins are increasingly becoming essential and commonplace tools for elucidating new knowledge about the role of proteins in both health and disease.
Source Note: Normal serum
Protein Type: Native
Biological Significance: Transferrins are iron-binding blood plasma glycoproteins that control the level of free iron in biological fluids. In humans, it is encoded by the TF gene. Transferrin is a glycoprotein that binds iron very tightly but reversibly. Although iron bound to transferrin is less than 0.1% (4 mg) of the total body iron, it is the most important iron pool, with the highest rate of turnover (25 mg/24 h). Transferrin has a molecular weight of around 80 kDa and contains 2 specific high-affinity Fe(III) binding sites. Species: Rat
Contaminants: A single precipitin arc was observed against anti-Rat Transferrin, and anti-Rat serum when assayed by Immunoelectrophoresis. Atherosclerosis, Carcinoma, Cardiovascular Diseases, Immune System Diseases, Inflammation, Liver Diseases, Liver Neoplasms, Lung Neoplasms, Necrosis, Nervous System Diseases are some of the diseases may be linked to Transferrin protein (Rat). TF also interacts with the following gene(s): ALB, APOA1, HEPH, HIF1A, IGFBP3, SLC40A1, TFR2, TFRC. The following patways have been known to be associated with this gene. Blood, Brain, Embryonic Tissue, Heart, Kidney, Liver, Lung, Muscle, Nerve, Skin tissues are correlated with this protein.
