Specifications
Target Information
Swine melanotransferrin (MELTF), also known as p97, is a member of the transferrin family of iron-binding proteins. In pigs, MELTF is primarily found in melanoma cells and is involved in the transport of iron, which is essential for various cellular processes. This protein plays a role in iron metabolism, potentially contributing to the regulation of iron levels within cells. Additionally, MELTF has been implicated in the protection against oxidative stress and may have a role in the immune response. Its function in swine is crucial for maintaining cellular health and could be significant in the context of disease resistance and overall pig welfare.
