Cellular uptake of iron occurs via receptor-mediated endocytosis of ligand-occupied transferrin receptor into specialized endosomes.
Endosomal acidification leads to iron release.
The apotransferrin-receptor complex is then recycled to the cell surface with a return to neutral pH and the concomitant loss of affinity of apotransferrin for its receptor.
Transferrin receptor is necessary for development of erythrocytes and the nervous system (By similarity).
A second ligand, the heditary hemochromatosis protein HFE, competes for binding with transferrin for an overlapping C-terminal binding site.
Positively regulates T and B cell proliferation through iron uptake
