Gene Information

human ... TF(7018)

General description

Transferrin (TF) is an iron (Fe) transport protein and found in blood plasma and brain extracellular fluids. It belongs to the family of Fe-binding glycoproteins. TF is made of a single polypeptide chain with two domains and each domain consists of a Fe-binding site. It helps in the transport of Fe(III) between the cells in soluble and non-toxic forms. TF also acts as a bacteriostatic agent as well as a growth factor. It binds to the transferrin receptor to mediate the cellular uptake of bound Fe. The TF gene is mapped on the human chromosome at 3q22.1. The antibody pair provided in this kit recognizes human serotransferrin.

An incomplete separation of disialotransferrin (CDT) and trisialotransferrin (a non-CDT isoform) may cause false-positive CDT results in alcohol abuse testing. We describe a currently unknown disialotransferrin-trisialotransferrin-bridging phenomenon (di-tri-bridge) appearing with high prevalence in serum from liver cirrhosis patients. Twenty one

We have recently shown that the catecholamine dopamine regulates cellular iron homeostasis in macrophages. As iron is an essential nutrient for microbes, and intracellular iron availability affects the growth of intracellular bacteria, we studied whether dopamine administration impacts the course

Pregnancy and tobacco smoking (TS) each can cause increases in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production; this, in turn, can lead to disorders in iron management and disruption of the pro- and anti-oxidant balance. The aim of the study was to
