Transferrin is the principal iron-binding protein in animal serum and is analogous in its iron-binding site and properties to lactoferrin1. Human transferrin is a single-chain glycoprotein of molecular weight near 80,000. The molecule is arranged in two l
Ap44mSe is a potent and selective antitumor agent. Ap44mSe effectively depletes cellular Fe, resulting in transferrin receptor-1 up-regulation, ferritin down-regulation, and increased expression of the potent metastasis suppressor, N-myc downstream regula
TfR-T12 is a transferrin receptor (TfR) binding peptide that can penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB), exhibiting a high binding affinity within the nanomolar (nM) range.
