Dissecting the structural and functional roles of a putative metal entry site in encapsulated ferritins

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2020
Encapsulated ferritins belong to the universally distributed ferritin superfamily, whose members function as iron detoxification and storage systems. Encapsulated ferritins have a distinct annular structure and must associate with an encapsulin nanocage ...

Ferritin for the clinician [PDF]

Blood Reviews, 2009
Ferritin, a major iron storage protein, is essential to iron homeostasis and is involved in a wide range of physiologic and pathologic processes. In clinical medicine, ferritin is predominantly utilized as a serum marker of total body iron stores. In cases of iron deficiency and overload, serum ferritin serves a critical role in both diagnosis and ...

Nanoscale magnetic imaging of ferritins in a single cell

Science Advances, 2019
A nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond is used for magnetic imaging of intracellular proteins in a single cell at 10-nm scale. The in situ measurement of the distribution of biomolecules inside a cell is one of the important goals in life science.
