FOLR2

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: FOLR2
  • Official Name: folate receptor beta
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 2350
  • UniProt: P14207
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: 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. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23934049, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2605182, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4066659}.
