Transferrin receptor 2: a new molecule in iron metabolism.

The international journal of biochemistry & cell biology - 1 Mar 2003

Trinder Debbie, Baker Erica

Abstract excerpt

Transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) which mediates uptake of transferrin-bound iron, is essential for life in mammals. Recently, a close homologue of human transferrin receptor 1 was cloned and called transferrin receptor 2 (TfR2). A similar molecule has been identified in the mouse. Human transferrin receptor 2 is 45% identical with transferrin receptor 1 in the extracellular domain, but contains no iron responsive...
