The formation of ferritin from apoferritin. Kinetics and mechanism of iron uptake

Ferritin has a high capacity as an iron store, incorporating some 4500 iron atoms as a microcrystalline ferric oxide hydrate. Starting from apoferritin, or ferritin of low iron content, Fe(2+) and an oxidizing agent, the uptake of iron can be recorded spectrophotometrically. Progress curves were obt...
