On ferritin heterogeneity. Further evidence for heteropolymers.
Open accessAbstract
Tissue ferritins from the horse, rat, and human consist of multiple isoferritins some of which are common to more than one tissue in the same individual. Subunit analyses indicate that the ferritins from all three species are similarly composed of only two types of subunit with an approximate Mr of 21,000 and 19,000, designated H and L. The relative amounts of these subunits vary progressively throughout the isoferritin spectrum. Amino acid analyses and tryptic peptide maps indicate that the H and L subunits have extensive sequence homologies and that both are species-specific. Both subunits have been identified as the primary products of apoferritin synthesis in a wheat germ lysate programmed by rat liver mRNA. These results substantiate our proposal (Adelman, T. G., Arosio, P., and Drysdale, J. W. (1975) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 63, 1056-1062) that tissue ferritins are not unique homopolymers but families of hybrid molecules consisting of different proportions of two subunit types.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
