CD71/transferrin receptor, Mr 180-190 kDa (90-95 kDa under reducing conditions)
CD71, a type II transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on the cell surface as a homodimer, is the transferrin receptor. It is essential for the growth of normal and neoplastic cells.^1, 4 It is expressed at low levels on resting B and T lymphocytes but is upregulated during responses to antigens and mitogens, presumably reflecting the iron dependence of proliferation.^4 Its expression declines with maturation and differentiation. CD71 plays a critical role in cell proliferation by controlling the supply of iron, which is essential for many metabolic pathways, through the binding and endocytosis of transferrin, the major ironcarrying protein. It may also be involved in signal transduction via its association with the T cell receptor zeta chain. The monoclonal antibody RI7217 inhibits cell proliferation in vitro.^2

Product Notes
The CD71 (Catalog #AAA673434) is an Antibody produced from Rat and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Rat Anti-Mouse CD71-UNLB reacts with Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's CD71 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Flow Cytometry; Immunoprecipitation. Research Application(s): In vivo and vitro inhibition of cell proliferation. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CD71 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 "CD71, Monoclonal Antibody" 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
