Function

[TRFE_CHICK] Transferrins are iron binding transport proteins which can bind two Fe(3+) ions in association with the binding of an anion, usually bicarbonate. Responsible for the transport of iron from sites of absorption and heme degradation to those of storage and utilization. There are two forms of hen transferrin, ovotransferrin, found in the ovoducts and, serum transferrin, secreted by the liver. Serum transferrin may also have a role in stimulating cell proliferation and is regulated by iron levels. Ovotransferrin has a bacteriostatic function and, is not controlled by iron levels.

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The iron binding and release of serum transferrin are pH-dependent and accompanied by a conformational change between the iron-bound (holo-) and iron-free (apo-) forms. We have determined the crystal structure of apo-hen serum transferrin (hAST) at 3.5A resolution, which is the first reported structure to date of any full molecule of an apo-serum transferrin and studied its pH-dependent iron release by UV-vis absorption and near UV-CD spectroscopy. The crystal structure of hAST shows that both the lobes adopt an open conformation and the relative orientations of the domains are different from those of apo-human serum transferrin and human apolactoferrin but similar to that of hen apo-ovotransferrin. Spectroscopic analysis reveals that in hen serum transferrin, release of the first iron starts at a pH approximately 6.5 and continues over a broad pH range (6.5-5.2). The complete release of the iron, however, occurs at pH approximately 4.0. The near UV-CD spectra show alterations in the microenvironment of the aromatic residues surrounding the iron-binding sites.
