Transferrin Receptor Antibody

Transferrin receptor protein 1 (TfR1), also known as Cluster of Differentiation 71 (CD71), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TFRC gene. It is mapped to 3q29. TFRC is a transmembrane glycoprotein composed of two disulfide-linked monomers joined by two disulfide bonds. Expression of human TfR1 in hamster cell lines markedly enhanced the infection of viruses pseudotyped with the glycoprotein of Machupo, Guanarito, and Junin viruses. TfR1 is a cellular receptor for New World hemorrhagic fever arenaviruses. It is required for iron delivery from transferrin to cells.
