Background	Human transferrin is encoded by the TF gene and is an iron-binding blood plasma glycoprotein that controls the level of free iron in biological fluids. Human transferrin binds iron very tightly but reversibly. Human transferrin is the most important iron pool in mammals. Human transferrin has a molecular weight of around 80 kDa and contains 2 specific high-affinity Fe(III) binding sites. The affinity of Human transferrin for Fe(III) is extremely high but decreases progressively with decreasing pH below neutrality. Human Transferrin also plays a role in the immune system, creating environments low in iron for which many pathogenic bacteria are unable to thrive.
Synonyms	rabbit anti-Transferrin Antibody Fluorescein Conjugated, Apotransferrin antibody, Beta 1 metal binding globulin antibody, DKFZp781D0156 antibody, PRO1400 antibody, PRO1557 antibody, PRO2086 antibody, Serotransferrin precursor antibody, Siderophilin antibody, TF antibody
Note	Anti-Human transferrin Fluorescein has been tested by dot blot and western blot and is designed for immunofluorescence microscopy, fluorescence based plate assays (FLISA) and fluorescent western blotting. This product is also suitable for multiplex analysis, including multicolor imaging, utilizing various commercial platforms.
