Gene Symbol TF
Synonyms HEL-S-71p | PRO1557 | PRO2086 | TFQTL1
Gene Description TF, serotransferrin, is a glyoprotein that delivers iron to actively dividing cells and plays a role in cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis (PMID: 28849262, PMID: 15708745). Transferrin receptors are widely expressed on cancer cells, and therefore, targeting or modulating TF is an active area of investigation (PMID: 27784246, PMID: 30623814).
