Binding to cellular receptors results in increased iron release from transferrin at mildly acidic pH.
In order to better understand the cellular delivery of iron from serum transferrin (Tf), we compared iron release from receptor-bound and free Tf. While free Tf did not release all iron until below pH 4.6, receptor-bound Tf released significantly more iron at mildly acidic pH, with essentially all iron released between pH 5.6 and 6.0. Since Tf is acidified to a minimum pH of 5.4 in K562 cells, ...
متن کاملManganese and Iron Binding to Human Transferrin
The characteristics of manganese and iron binding to human apotransferrin (apo-tf) have been investigated and compared in this study. Both metal ions were taken up by human apo-tf and formed complexes, with the maximum absorbances observed at 410 and 340 nm for manganese-transferrin (Mn-tf) and 465 nm for iron-transferrin (Fe-tf). Addition of manganese (1.5 µg/ml) to the reaction mixture contai...

متن کاملHow the binding of human transferrin primes the transferrin receptor potentiating iron release at endosomal pH.
Delivery of iron to cells requires binding of two iron-containing human transferrin (hTF) molecules to the specific homodimeric transferrin receptor (TFR) on the cell surface. Through receptor-mediated endocytosis involving lower pH, salt, and an unidentified chelator, iron is rapidly released from hTF within the endosome. The crystal structure of a monoferric N-lobe hTF/TFR complex (3.22-Å res...
متن کاملtransferrin by iron-binding capacity
SYNOPSIS Two criteria which ought to be satisfied by an acceptable method for the estimation of serum transferrin by iron-binding capacity are enunciated. A screening procedure is described which involves the sequential quantitative use of ion exchange and gel filtration. Its use in testing the extent to which two published methods fulfil the recommended criteria is described. Both methods give...
