Anti-FTH1, CT (Ferritin Heavy Chain, Ferritin H Subunit, Cell Proliferation-inducing Gene 15 Protein

FTH1 is the heavy subunit of ferritin, the major intracellular iron storage protein in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of 24 subunits of the heavy and light ferritin chains. Variation in ferritin subunit composition may affect the rates of iron uptake and release in different tissues. A major function of ferritin is the storage of iron in a soluble and nontoxic state. Defects in ferritin proteins are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, Flow Cytometry and Immunohistochemistry.
