Recombinant human transferrin: Beyond iron binding and transport

Iron is indispensible for life and essential for such processes as oxygen transport, electron transfer and DNA synthesis. Transferrin (Tf) is a ubiquitous protein with a central role in iron transport and metabolism. There is evidence, however, that Tf has many other biological roles in addition to...

description Iron is indispensible for life and essential for such processes as oxygen transport, electron transfer and DNA synthesis. Transferrin (Tf) is a ubiquitous protein with a central role in iron transport and metabolism. There is evidence, however, that Tf has many other biological roles in addition to its primary function of facilitating iron transport and metabolism, such as its profound effect on mammalian cell growth and productivity. The multiple functions of Tf can be exploited to develop many novel applications. Indeed, over the past several years, considerable efforts have been directed towards exploring human serum Tf (hTf), especially the use of recombinant native hTf and recombinant Tf fusion proteins, for various applications within biotechnology and medicine. Here, we review some of the remarkable progress that has been made towards the application of hTf in these diverse areas and discuss some of the exciting future prospects for hTf.
