Crystal Structure of Human Intrinsic Factor- Cobalamin Complex at 2.6 A Resolution
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 17954916
Disease
[IF_HUMAN] Defects in GIF are the cause of hereditary intrinsic factor deficiency (IFD) [MIM:261000]; also known as congenital pernicious anemia. IFD is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by megaloblastic anemia.[1]
Function
[IF_HUMAN] Promotes absorption of the essential vitamin cobalamin (Cbl) in the ileum. After interaction with CUBN, the GIF-cobalamin complex is internalized via receptor-mediated endocytosis.
