Introduction
Folate Receptor 1, also known as FOLR1, is a part of the folate receptor family whose members bind folic acid. FOLR1 binds to folate and reduced folic acid derivatives and facilitates transfer of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and folate analogs into the cells. FOLR1 is either attaches to membranes through a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol linkage or exists in a soluble form. FOLR1 is also needed for embryonic development and normal cell proliferation.
Description
FOLR2 Human Recombinant is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 215 amino acids (22-230a.a) and having a molecular mass of 25.1kDa. FOLR2 is fused to a 6 a.a His tag at C-terminal, and is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
HEK293 Cells.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
The FOLR2 solution (0.25mg/ml) contains 10% glycerol and Phosphate-Buffered Saline (pH 7.4).
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
