1 6090534 These findings support a model for B cell activation in which mitogen (or antigen) delivers two concurrent but distinct signals to B cells: one, dependent on B cell growth factor and transferrin receptor expression, for proliferation; and a second, dependent on T cell-derived factors and not requiring transferrin receptors, which leads to immunoglobulin secretion.
2 1587606 In Neisseria meningitidis, the transferrin receptor appears to consist of two proteins, one of which (TBP 1) has an M(r) of 95,000 and the other of which (TBP 2) has an M(r) ranging from 68,000 to 85,000, depending on the strain; TBP 2 binds transferrin after sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electroblotting, but TBP 1 does not do so.
3 7752881 Whereas the LbpA protein shows homology to the transferrin-binding protein 1 (Tbp1), the putative protein encoded by the open reading frame upstream of IbpA shows extensive homology to Tbp2, suggesting that iron-acquisition from lactoferrin, like from transferrin, requires two specific proteins in the outer membrane.
