Transferrin Receptor Protein-1 (TFRC) HEK293 Cell Line are engineered HEK293 cells to express full length human Transferrin Receptor Protein-1 (TFRC and TFR1, also known as human CD71 protein, GenBank accession #NM_001128148), a cell surface receptor involved in iron homeostasis. Deregulated iron homeostasis links to multiple disease including Parkinson’s Disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Huntington’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and tumorigenesis. This cell line was validated by flow cytometry for surface expression of TFRC and can be used in multiple applications, such transferrin endocytosis studies and binding assays.
