1 | Functional studies, conducted primarily on lipocalin 2 (Lcn2), the mouse homologue of human NGAL have revealed that Lcn2 has a strong affinity for iron complexed to both bacterial siderophores (iron-binding proteins) and certain human proteins like norepinephrine. | Iron | lipocalin 2 | Homo sapiens |

5 | By sequestering iron-laden siderophores, Lcn2 deprives bacteria of a vital nutrient and thus inhibits their growth (bacteriostatic effect). | Iron | lipocalin 2 | Homo sapiens |
6 | By transporting iron into and out of the cell, NGAL also regulates iron responsive genes. | Iron | lipocalin 2 | Homo sapiens |
7 | By transporting iron into and out of the cell, NGAL also regulates iron responsive genes. | Iron | lipocalin 2 | Homo sapiens |
