CytoGrow™ Recombinant Transferrin (Bovine), CHO, Tag Free
Recombinant bovine Transferrin is expressed in CHO cells to ensure proper folding and authentic mammalian post-translational modifications. This tag-free protein retains the native structure and high bioactivity of bovine transferrin, making it suitable for diverse applications in cell culture and iron metabolism research.
Transferrin is a glycoprotein responsible for iron transport in the bloodstream, playing a critical role in iron homeostasis and cellular iron uptake. It binds iron ions and facilitates their delivery to cells via transferrin receptors, supporting essential biological processes such as erythropoiesis and metabolism. Recombinant bovine Transferrin is widely used in cell culture media supplementation, iron metabolism studies, and biopharmaceutical applications.
