Anti-Ferritin H [4C9], Mouse IgG1, kappa

This antibody binds human acidic isoferritin. Ferritin is a protein that catalyzes the oxidation of ferrous iron(II) to ferric iron(III) and stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form. Ferritin is important for iron homeostasis. Ferritins occur as many isoforms, all of which are composed of various combinations of the two primary subunits, H and L. Acidic isoferritins have high proportions of H subunit.
