FOLR1 Protein, Human, Recombinant (hFc)

Catalog No. TMPJ-00147
Synonyms: Folate receptor 1, Folate receptor, Folate receptor alpha, FOLR1, FR-alpha, Adult folate-binding protein, FR-α, Folate receptor α, Ovarian tumor-associated antigen MOv18, FBP

Folate receptor alpha(FOLR) belongs to the folate receptor family, and is primarily expressed in tissues of epithelial origin. It is also expressed in kidney, lung and cerebellum. 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. FOLR1 binds to folate and reduced folic acid derivatives and mediates delivery of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and folate analogs into the interior of cells. It 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. It is required for normal embryonic development and normal cell proliferation.

Construction Recombinant Human Folate receptor alpha is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Arg25-Ser234 is expressed with a human IgG1 Fc tag at the C-terminus.
Protein Purity Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. Greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC.

Molecular Weight 55-75 kDa, reducing conditions
Endotoxin Less than 0.1 ng/ug (1 EU/ug) as determined by LAL test.
Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Reconstitution Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
