Online InquiryTarget Information
| Target Name | Transferrin Receptor |
| Uniprot ID | P02786 |
| Cellular Localization | Secreted and Cell membrane. Melanosome. Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. |
| Immunogen | Tissue, cells or virus corresponding to Human Transferrin Receptor. |
| Function | 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 (By similarity). 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 (PubMed:26642240).(Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for new-world arenaviruses: Guanarito, Junin and Machupo virus. |
