HFE-transfected HEK 293 cells demonstrate induced synthesis of TfR and reduced synthesis of ferritin.
HEK 293 and 293/HFE cells (clones 1-5) were metabolically labeled with35[S]methionine for 1 hour, and the cell lysates were immunoprecipitated with Abs directed against HFE/β2m, 2F5, and ferritin. Cell lysates were fractionated and tested by Western blot analysis for the expression of TfR with H68.4 Ab.
