Product Specific Information

Goat anti-Human Transferrin antibody recognizes human transferrin, an iron-binding glycoprotein of approximately 79 kDa.

Target Information

Transferrins (Tf) are approximately 80 kDa blood plasma glycoproteins synthesized by the liver. They are iron-binding transport proteins capable of binding two Fe(3+) ions along with an anion, usually bicarbonate. Transferrin is responsible for transporting iron from absorption and heme degradation sites to storage and utilization sites. It is the primary blood iron transport protein, with about one-third of total transferrin normally bound to iron. Measurement of transferrin levels can indicate blood iron-carrying capacity and abnormalities such as anemia, iron overload, and haemochromatosis. Serum transferrin may also play a role in stimulating cell proliferation.
