Application
Anti-SLC19A1 polyclonal antibody is used to tag solute carrier family 19 (folate transporter), member 1 for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of solute carrier family 19 (folate transporter), member 19 in carrier-mediated reduced folate uptake.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Anti-SLC19A1 polyclonal antibody reacts with human solute carrier family 19 (folate transporter), member 1.
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. SLC19A1 plays a role in maintaining intracellular concentrations of folate.Transport of folate compounds into mammalian cells can occur via receptor-mediated (see MIM 136430) or carrier-mediated mechanisms.

General description
Solute carrier family 19 (folate transporter), member 1 (SLC19A1, CHMD, FOLT, RFC1, IFC1) is a major carrier-mediated transporter in mammalian cells for the uptake of reduced folates and antifolate-based anticancer drugs such as methotrexate. RFC activity can be considered as a potential marker for predicting response to antifolate chemotherapy.

Folates are essential for brain development and function. Folate transport in mammalian tissues is mediated by three major folate transport systems, i.e., reduced folate carrier (RFC), proton-coupled folate transporter (PCFT), and folate receptor alpha (FRα), known to be regulated by
