Specifications
Target Information
Chicken transthyretin (TTR) is a multifunctional protein primarily synthesized in the liver and choroid plexus, playing a crucial role in the transport of thyroid hormones and retinol. It is highly conserved across vertebrates, including chickens, where it serves as a carrier for thyroxine (T4) and retinol-binding protein (RBP) to support metabolic and developmental processes. In chickens, TTR is also involved in the transport of these ligands into oocytes through a receptor-mediated mechanism, highlighting its importance in embryonic development.
