FOLR1 binds to folate and facilitates its internalization into cells through receptor-mediated endocytosis or potocytosis and is important in cellular processes, including DNA synthesis and repair (1-3). Intracellular folate levels are critical to maintaining and supporting folate functions in its multiple coenzyme forms (4). It is primarily expressed in tissues requiring high folate levels, such as the placenta, kidneys, and certain cancer cells (5). FOLR1 has been found to be overexpressed in several types of cancer, including ovarian, lung, and breast cancer (6-8).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nAdult folate-binding protein; FBP; folate binding protein; Folate receptor 1; folate receptor 1 (adult); Folate receptor alpha; Folate receptor, adult; FOLR; FOLR1; FR-alpha; FRalpha; KB cells FBP; Ovarian tumor-associated antigen MOv18\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 38\nSource\/Isotype: Mouse IgG1 kappa","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799417344169,"sku":"34265T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-34265t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
