Background of Transferrin

Transferrins are iron-binding blood plasma glycoproteins that control the level of free iron in biological fluids. In humans, it is encoded by the TF gene. In humans, transferrin consists of a polypeptide chain containing 679 amino acids. The protein is composed of alpha helices and beta sheets to form two domains. The N- and C- terminal sequences are represented by globular lobes and between the two lobes is an iron-binding site. Transferrin is a glycoprotein that binds iron very tightly but reversibly. Although iron bound to transferrin is less than 0.1% (4 mg) of the total body iron, it is the most important iron pool, with the highest rate of turnover (25 mg/24 h). Transferrin has a molecular weight of around 80 kDa and contains 2 specific high-affinity Fe (III) binding sites. The affinity of transferrin for Fe (III) is extremely high (1023 M−1 at pH 7.4) but decreases progressively with decreasing pH below neutrality.

Antibody Validation

Boster validates all antibodies on WB, IHC, ICC, Immunofluorescence, and ELISA with known positive control and negative samples to ensure specificity and high affinity, including thorough antibody incubations.

Question

Will RP1022 anti-Transferrin/TF antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2020-01-29

Answer

It shows on the product datasheet, RP1022 anti-Transferrin/TF antibody as been validated on IHC. It is best to use PFA for fixation because it has better tissue penetration ability. PFA needs to be prepared fresh before use. Long term stored PFA turns into formalin, as the PFA molecules congregate and become formalin.

Question

Will anti-Transferrin/TF antibody RP1022 work on zebrafish ELISA with saliva?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-11-14

Answer

Our lab technicians have not validated anti-Transferrin/TF antibody RP1022 on zebrafish. You can run a BLAST between zebrafish and the immunogen sequence of anti-Transferrin/TF antibody RP1022 to see if they may cross-react. If the sequence homology is close, then you can perform a pilot test. Keep in mind that since we have not validated zebrafish samples, this use of the antibody is not covered by our guarantee. However we have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in zebrafish saliva in ELISA, you can get your next antibody for free.

Question

I have a question about product RP1022, anti-Transferrin/TF antibody. I was wondering if it would be possible to conjugate this antibody with biotin. I would need it to be without BSA or sodium azide. I am planning on using a buffer exchange of sodium azide with PBS only. Would there be problems for me to conjugate the antibody and store it in -20 degrees in small aliquots?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-11-06

Answer

We do not recommend storing this antibody with PBS buffer only in -20 degrees. If you want to store it in -20 degrees it is best to add some cryoprotectant like glycerol. If you want carrier free RP1022 anti-Transferrin/TF antibody, we can provide it to you in a special formula with trehalose and/or glycerol. These molecules will not interfere with conjugation chemistry and provide a good level of protection for the antibody from degradation. Please be sure to specify this in your purchase order.

Answer

From literature liver does express TF. From Uniprot.org, TF is expressed in inferior vagus x ganglion, liver, brain, fetal liver, brain, cajal-retzius cell fetal brain cortex, heart, bile, plasma, saliva, cerebrospinal fluid, among other tissues. Regarding which tissues have TF expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:
Bile, Pubmed ID: 15084671
Brain, Pubmed ID: 9272172, 15489334
