Structural basis of transcobalamin recognition by human CD320 receptor

Cellular uptake of vitamin B12 (cobalamin) requires the binding of holo-transcobalamin (TC) from plasma by CD320. Here, the authors report the structure of a complex between CD320 and TC loaded with cyanocobalamin, alongside additional functional analysis.
