Homo sapiens

Also known as TFQTL1; PRO1557; PRO2086; HEL-S-71p

Gene ID: 7018 | Gene type: protein coding

About TF

Cytogenetic location: 3q22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:133,661,998-133,796,641 (from NCBI)

This gene has 14 transcripts (splice variants), 170 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Restricted expression toward liver (RPKM 1622.3).

Summary

This gene encodes a glycoprotein with an approximate molecular weight of 76.5 kDa. It is thought to have been created as a result of an ancient gene duplication event that led to generation of homologous C and N-terminal domains each of which binds one ion of ferric iron. The function of this protein is to transport iron from the intestine, reticuloendothelial system, and liver parenchymal cells to all proliferating cells in the body. This protein may also have a physiologic role as granulocyte/pollen-binding protein (GPBP) involved in the removal of certain organic matter and allergens from serum. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
