| Serum samples for protease inhibitor and transferrin analysis were used directly without additional preparation. |
| The transferrin receptor is a protein located in the plasma membrane that binds the protein transferrin. |
| Found fixed to the surface of developing red blood cells, transferrin frees iron directly into the cell. |
| This blood test measures the amount of iron bound to transferrin, an iron-carrying protein in your bloodstream. |
| Serum lead, transferrin, haptoglobin, and ceruloplasmin levels were all found to be within normal limits. |
| Transport of the iron from the enterocyte is achieved by binding to a carrier, a plasma protein called transferrin. |
