Transferrin is a bilobed glycoprotein. The polypeptide chain of transferrin is composed of two homologous lobes i.e N- and C- lobes. Each lobe is made of two domains N1, N2 and C1, C2 which are linked by a hinge. It has two specific sites for binding of Fe3+.
MDL Number: MFCD00162555
Storage: -20C
Application: Anti-Transferrin antibody produced in goat was used in western blotting analysis of HEK293 cell extracts.
Biochem Physiol Actions: Transferrin plays a major role in providing iron as a source for haemoglobin synthesis. It binds to the transferrin receptor 1(TfR1).
