Melanotransferrin Antibodies

AND MELTF ELISA kits, Melanotransferrin Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect Melanotransferrin, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with Melanotransferrin in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop Melanotransferrin antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Melanotransferrin by testing them on tissues known to express MELTF positively and negatively. Browse below to find the MELTF antibody that suites your experiment. We have 3 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

MELTF Overview

Facts about Melanotransferrin.

MELTF 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Melanotransferrin (MELTF)

Involved in iron cellular uptake. Seems to be internalized and then recycled back to the cell membrane.

Binds a single atom of iron per subunit. Could also bind zinc.
