Description : |
This gene encodes a glycoprotein with an approximate molecular weight of 76.5 kDa. It is thought to have been created as a result of an ancient gene duplication event that led to generation of homologous C and N-terminal domains each of which binds one ion of ferric iron. The function of this protein is to transport iron from the intestine, reticuloendothelial system, and liver parenchymal cells to all proliferating cells in the body. This protein may also have a physiologic role as granulocyte/pollen-binding protein (GPBP) involved in the removal of certain organic matter and allergens from serum. |
Tissue specificity : |
Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. |
Biological activity : |
The activity of TF-31155TH was measured by its ability to support the growth of HepG2 cells under conditions of reduced serum. Typically 0.1 to 1 μg enhances cell proliferation. |
