| 11. | This gene encodes the light subunit of the ferritin protein.
|
| 12. | Ferritin is the major intracellular iron storage protein in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
|
| 13. | Defects in ferritin proteins are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases.
|
| 14. | This is in contrast to ferritin, a routine investigation for anemia.
|
| 15. | Mitochondrial ferritin has many roles pertaining to molecular function.
|
| 16. | Siderophores are unable to directly mobilise iron from ferritin.
|
| 17. | Serum iron, percentage saturation and ferritin are increased.
|
| 18. | A similar hetero-assembly is seen in the ferritins of higher eukaryotes.
|
| 19. | It is composed of 24 subunits of the heavy and light ferritin chains.
|
| 20. | The ferritin protein is made up of light chain ( L ) subunits.
