Target Information
Chicken transthyretin (TTR) is a key protein involved in the transport of thyroid hormones and vitamin A in oocytes, which is crucial for embryonic development. It is synthesized in the choroid plexus and secreted into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), facilitating the movement of thyroxine (T4) from the blood into the CSF and throughout the brain. TTR is also suggested to have proteolytic activity, which may play a role in the clearance of amyloid beta peptides, potentially impacting neurodegenerative diseases.
