Transferrin: structure, function and potential therapeutic actions.

Peter T Gomme1, Karl B McCann, Joseph Bertolini.   

Abstract

There are many proteins that can multi-task. Transferrin, widely known as an iron-binding protein, is one such example of a multi-tasking protein. In this review, the multiple biological actions of transferrin, including its growth and cytoprotective activities, are discussed with the view of highlighting the potential therapeutic applications of this protein.
