Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 4Å Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function TRFE_ANAPL Transferrins are iron binding transport proteins which can bind two Fe(3+) ions in association with the binding of an anion, usually bicarbonate. It is responsible for the transport of iron from sites of absorption and heme degradation to those of storage and utilization. Serum transferrin may also have a further role in stimulating cell proliferation. Ovotransferrin has a bacteriostatic function. Its concentration in avian egg is the highest concentration of any transferrin in vivo (By similarity). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed Crystals of duck ovotransferrin and duck apo-ovotransferrin have been grown from polyethylene glycol solutions. For both crystals, the space group is P2(1)2(1)2(1), the unit cell dimensions for the ovotransferrin are a = 49.6 A, b = 85.6 A, c = 178.7 A and for the apo-ovotransferrin a = 77.6 A, b = 98.8 A, c = 127.0 A, giving four molecules in the unit cell.
