Anti-SLC19A1 Antibody
Background: Solute carrier family 19 (folate transporter), member 1, also known as SLC19A1 or RFC1, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the SLC19A1 gene. Transport of folate compounds into mammalian cells can occur via receptor-mediated or carrier-mediated mechanisms. A functional coordination between these 2 mechanisms has been proposed to be the method of folate uptake in certain cell types. Methotrexate (MTX) is an antifolate chemotherapeutic agent that is actively transported by the carrier-mediated uptake system. And RFC1 plays a role in maintaining intracellular concentrations of folate.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The membrane protein encoded by this gene is a transporter of folate and is involved in the regulation of intracellular concentrations of folate. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
Uniprot Description
SLC19A1: a transporter protein. Transports reduced folate, antitumor agents and folate antagonists such as methotrexate. Apparently involved in methotrexate resistance in various cancers and neural tube defects.

Product Notes
The SLC19A1 slc19a1 (Catalog #AAA178107) is an Antibody and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-SLC19A1 Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SLC19A1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Western Blot Concentration: 0.1-0.5ug/ml. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SLC19A1 slc19a1 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. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SLC19A1, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.Precautions
