FOLR1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

FOLR1 Protein, binding to folate and reduced folic acid derivatives, facilitates their delivery into cells. It maintains high affinity under neutral pH but undergoes a conformational change upon endocytosis, reducing affinity and releasing folates in slightly acidic pH. Crucial for embryonic development, cell proliferation, and renal folate reabsorption. FOLR1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived FOLR1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

FOLR1 Protein, binding to folate and reduced folic acid derivatives, facilitates their delivery into cells. It maintains high affinity under neutral pH but undergoes a conformational change upon endocytosis, reducing affinity and releasing folates in slightly acidic pH. Crucial for embryonic development, cell proliferation, and renal folate reabsorption. FOLR1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived FOLR1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Background

The FOLR1 protein binds to folate and reduced folic acid derivatives, facilitating the delivery of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and folate analogs into cells. It exhibits a high affinity for folate and folic acid analogs under neutral pH conditions. Upon endocytosis and exposure to slightly acidic pH, a conformational change occurs, leading to a significant reduction in its affinity for folates and subsequent release. This protein is essential for normal embryonic development, cell proliferation, and renal folate reabsorption.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping
