'''Transferrin''' or '''serotransferrin''' (TF) is an iron-binding protein. TF delivers iron from absorption centers in the duodendum and white blood cell macrophages to all tissues. TF contains two lobes: at the N and C termini. Ovotransferrin (OTF) is a glycosylated TF of egg white albumen. For details see [[Molecular Playground/Transferrin]]. | '''Transferrin''' or '''serotransferrin''' (TF) is an iron-binding protein.
