Iron incorporation into apoferritin. The role of apoferritin as a ferroxidase

Apoferritin catalyzes the oxidation of Fe(II) to Fe(III). Ferroxidase activity is assayed and characterized by coupling the oxidation with the binding of Fe(III) to transferrin. The initial rate of Fe(II) oxidation is dependent on apoferritin and initial Fe(II) concentration but independent of trans...
