Product Specifications
CAS Number
9007-83-4
Gene Name
Transferrin receptor
Gene Aliases
T9, TR, TFR, p90, CD71, TFR1, TRFR, IMD46

Reactivity
Human
Immunogen
Synthesized peptide derived between 91-140 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human CD71.
Target
Cellular uptake of iron occurs via receptor-mediated endocytosis of ligand-occupied transferrin receptor into specialized endosomes. Endosomal acidification leads to iron release. The apotransferrin-receptor complex is then recycled to the cell surface with a return to neutral pH and the concomitant loss of affinity of apotransferrin for its receptor. Transferrin receptor is necessary for development of erythrocytes and the nervous system . A second ligand, the heditary hemochromatosis protein HFE, competes for binding with transferrin for an overlapping C-terminal binding site. Positively regulates T and B cell proliferation through iron uptake. (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for new-world arenaviruses: Guanarito, Junin and Machupo virus.
