Recombinant Human FR-alpha/FOLR1 Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Arg25-Met233) of human FOLR-1/FBP (Accession #NP_000793.1) fused with a 6×His tag at the C-terminus. |
Post Translational Modifications | 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. |
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. Required for normal embryonic development and normal cell proliferation. |
