== Function == | |||
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FRIH_HUMAN FRIH_HUMAN]] Stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form. Important for iron homeostasis. Has ferroxidase activity. Iron is taken up in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation. Also plays a role in delivery of iron to cells. Mediates iron uptake in capsule cells of the developing kidney (By similarity). | |||

== Publication Abstract from PubMed == | |||
Human ferritin has been explored as a potential drug nanocarrier, but extreme conditions (pH </= 2.0) are required for the encapsulation of drugs. Here, by engineering the AB loop of ferritin, we obtained a new ferritin variant with no new pores, which can disassemble at pH 3.0 or 4.0 and reassemble at pH 7.0. Consequently, under mild conditions, drugs can be encapsulated within this new ferritin nanocage. | |||
