Background
-
Function
FOLR1 binds to folate and reduced folic acid derivatives and mediates delivery of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and folate analogs into the interior of cells. Has high affinity for folate and folic acid analogs at neutral pH. Exposure to slightly acidic pH after receptor endocytosis triggers a conformation change that strongly reduces its affinity for folates and mediates their release. Required for normal embryonic development and normal cell proliferation (By similarity)[1][2][3][4][5][6].

Subcellular Localization
Cell membrane; Apical cell membrane; Basolateral cell membrane; Secreted; Cytoplasmic vesicle; Cytoplasmic vesicle, clathrin-coated vesicle; Endosome
-
Expression
Tissue_Specificity: Primarily expressed in tissues of epithelial origin. Expression is increased in malignant tissues. Expressed in kidney, lung and cerebellum. Detected in placenta and thymus epithelium. -
Isoforms & Post-Translational Modification
FOLR1 has an amino acid length of 257, molecular weight is 29819 Da.
The secreted form is derived from the membrane-bound form either by cleavage of the GPI anchor, or/and by proteolysis catalyzed by a metalloprotease -
