Enables ferric iron binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to cAMP; cellular response to follicle-stimulating hormone stimulus; and regulation of nervous system development. Located in several cellular components, including basement membrane; cell tip; and dendrite. Used to study hepatitis. Biomarker of anemia and obesity. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in anemia (multiple); atransferrinemia; gastrointestinal system disease; glucose metabolism disease (multiple); and restless legs syndrome. Orthologous to human TF (transferrin).
