Transcobalamin I (TC-1), also known as haptocorrin (HC), R-factor, and R-protein is encoded in the human by the TCN1 gene. TC-1 is a glycoprotein produced by the salivary glands of the mouth. It primarily serves to protect cobalamin (Vitamin B12) from acid degradation in the stomach by producing a HC-Vitamin B 12 complex.

The Schilling test has multiple stages. [3] As noted below, it can be done at any time after vitamin B 12 supplementation and body store replacement, and some clinicians recommend that in severe deficiency cases, at least several weeks of vitamin repletion be done before the test (more than one B 12 shot, and also oral folic acid), in order to ensure that impaired absorption of B 12 (with or ...
Gastric acid is needed to release vitamin B 12 from protein for absorption. Reduced secretion of gastric acid and pepsin , from the use of H 2 blocker or proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) drugs, can reduce the absorption of protein-bound (dietary) vitamin B 12 , although not of supplemental vitamin B 12 .
In molecular biology, the vitamin B12-binding domain is a protein domain which binds to cobalamin (vitamin B12). It can bind two different forms of the cobalamin cofactor, with cobalt bonded either to a methyl group (methylcobalamin) or to 5'-deoxyadenosine (adenosylcobalamin).

Lack of intrinsic factor: intrinsic factor is a protein produced by parietal cells in the stomach, and needed in the ileum for the absorption of vitamin B 12. Lack of intrinsic factor is most commonly due to an autoimmune attack on the cells that create it in the stomach, and this condition takes the name "pernicious anemia".
