The proteins that function as transporters for other nutrients are:

1. Lipoproteins: These are complex particles composed of proteins and lipids, which function to transport all fat molecules around the body within the water outside cells. They are classified by their density into high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL).

2. Transferrin: This is a glycoprotein that binds and transports iron in the blood. Iron is a crucial mineral that cells require for normal growth and development.

Estrogen and collagen do not function as transporters for other nutrients. Estrogen is a hormone, not a protein, and it plays a crucial role in the female reproductive system. Collagen, on the other hand, is the most abundant protein in our bodies and is the substance that holds the body together, providing strength and structure.
