Additional genetic variation of human serum transferrin.
A new molecular species of human transferrin, Tf $$Word$$, is described. Starch gel electrophoresis under high-voltage conditions permits the new variant to be clearly distinguished from previously described variants of closely similar mobilities. The presence of a faint iron-binding component which migrates slightly more rapidly than the principal transferrin with which it is associated is also described.
