|  Tissue Specificity  |   Expressed in placenta and hematopoietic cells. Expression is increased in malignant tissues.  |  
  |  Post Translational Modifications  |   N-glycosylated.  |  
  |  Function  |   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.  |
