| Description: | Apo-Transferrin from mouse is a serum protein involved in the transfer of iron to the cells. Apo-transferrin can bind two Fe3+ ions. In the iron bound state, it is referred to as transferrin. It binds to transferrin receptors in the extracellular surface of cell membrane, internalizes and releases iron in the cytoplasm. Apo-transferrin is cycled back to the serum for iron transport. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
