SCARA5 blocking peptide
SCARA5 Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
SCARA5: Ferritin receptor that mediates non-transferrin- dependent delivery of iron. Mediates cellular uptake of ferritin- bound iron by stimulating ferritin endocytosis from the cell surface with consequent iron delivery within the cell. Delivery of iron to cells by ferritin is required for the development of specific cell types, suggesting the existence of cell type- specific mechanisms of iron traffic in organogenesis, which alternatively utilize transferrin or non-transferrin iron delivery pathways. Ferritin mediates iron uptake in capsule cells of the developing kidney. Binds preferrentially ferritin light chain (FTL) compared to heavy chain (FTH1). Belongs to the SCARA5 family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Membrane protein, integral
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 8p21.1
Cellular Component: cell surface; integral to plasma membrane
Molecular Function: scavenger receptor activity
Biological Process: receptor-mediated endocytosis; cellular iron ion homeostasis; regulation of gene expression; regulation of blood coagulation; endocytosis

Product Notes
The SCARA5 scara5 (Catalog #AAA153218) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's SCARA5 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking (BL). SCARA5 peptide is used for blocking the activity of SCARA5 antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SCARA5 scara5 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SCARA5, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
