Species-specificity of transferrin as investigated in the rat conceptus using an improved microinjection technique

Transferrin, a widespread vertebrate protein, is responsible, along with its specific receptor, for all of the iron transported into the cell. Despite its ubiquity and structural similarity across species, heterologous molecules display different binding affinities for human cells. In general transf...
