## Abstract The mechanisms of iron (Fe) and transferrin (Tf) uptake by the human melanoma cell line, SKβMELβ28, have been investigated using chelators and metabolic probes. These data provide evidence for two saturable processes of Fe uptake from Tf, namely, specific receptorβmediated endocytosis a
Belgrade (b) rats have an autosomal recessive, microcytic, hypochromic anemia. Transferrin (Tf)-dependent iron uptake is defective because of a mutation in DMT1 (Nramp2), blocking endosomal iron efflux. This experiment of nature permits the present study to address whether the mutation also affects
