Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP01955
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Folate transporter 1
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. FOLT
  2. IFC-1
  3. Intestinal folate carrier 1
  4. Placental folate transporter
  5. RFC
  6. Reduced folate carrier protein
  7. Solute carrier family 19 member 1
Gene Name SLC19A1
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in folic acid binding
Specific Function Transporter for the intake of folate. Uptake of folate in human placental choriocarcinoma cells occurs by a novel mechanism called potocytosis which functionally couples three components, namely the folate receptor, the folate transporter, and a V-type H(+)-pump.
