Ferritin as an iron-storage protein: mechanisms of iron uptake.

P M Harrison, A Treffry, T H Lilley.   

Abstract

The major physiological role of the ubiquitous protein ferritin is to store iron, which it does as a mineral core within a protein shell. Using evidence from a variety of sources we suggest that this versatile protein responds in its mechanism of iron uptake to changes in environmental conditions.
