== Function ==
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TRFL_BOVIN TRFL_BOVIN]] Transferrins are iron binding transport proteins which can bind two Fe(3+) ions in association with the binding of an anion, usually bicarbonate.<ref>PMID:8980754</ref> <ref>PMID:15222473</ref>   Lactotransferrin has antimicrobial activity. The most effective inhibitory activity was seen against E.coli and P.aeruginosa.<ref>PMID:8980754</ref> <ref>PMID:15222473</ref>   Lactoferricin B is an antimicrobial peptide. Inhibits the growth of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.<ref>PMID:8980754</ref> <ref>PMID:15222473</ref>   The lactotransferrin transferrin-like domain 1 functions as a serine protease of the peptidase S60 family that cuts arginine rich regions. This function contributes to the antimicrobial activity.<ref>PMID:8980754</ref> <ref>PMID:15222473</ref>
