Transferrin receptor protein 1,TR,TfR,TfR1,Trfr,T9,p90,CD antigen CD71,[Cleaved into: Transferrin receptor protein 1, serum form,sTfR,]
Cell localization:Membrane.transferrin receptor(TFRC) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a cell surface receptor necessary for cellµLar iron uptake by the process of receptor-mediated endocytosis. This receptor is required for erythropoiesis and neurologic development. MµLtiple alternatively spliced variants have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015],
