Related Product Information for FOLR2 active protein
FOLR2, also known as Folate receptor beta, is a member of the folate receptor (FLOR) family. Members of this gene family have a high affinity for folate and folic acid analogs at neutral pH. And they mediate delivery of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate to the interior of cells. It was originally thought to exist only in placenta, but is also expressed in placenta, cells of the neutrophilic lineage, and some CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells. FOLR2 is also upregulated on macrophages and monocytes at chronic inflammatory sites including rheumatoid arthritis synovium and glioblastoma. Recombinant human FOLR2, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in HEK293 cell and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the folate receptor (FOLR) family, and these genes exist in a cluster on chromosome 11. Members of this gene family have a high affinity for folic acid and for several reduced folic acid derivatives, and they mediate delivery of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate to the interior of cells. This protein has a 68% and 79% sequence homology with the FOLR1 and FOLR3 proteins, respectively. Although this protein was originally thought to be specific to placenta, it can also exist in other tissues, and it may play a role in the transport of methotrexate in synovial macrophages in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes

The FOLR2 folr2 (Catalog #AAA201300) is an Active Protein produced from HEK293 and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 22-230aa. AAA Biotech's FOLR2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, SDS-PAGE, Bioactivity. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the FOLR2 folr2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. The amino acid sequence is listed below: QDRTDLLNVC MDAKHHKTKP GPEDKLHDQC SPWKKNACCT ASTSQELHKD TSRLYNFNWD HCGKMEPACK RHFIQDTCLY ECSPNLGPWI QQVNQSWRKE RFLDVPLCKE DCQRWWEDCH TSHTCKSNWH RGWDWTSGVN KCPAGALCRT FESYFPTPAA LCEGLWSHSY KVSNYSRGSG RCIQMWFDSA QGNPNEEVAR FYAAAMHVN< H HHHHH>. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "FOLR2, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
