Human Reduced Folate Carrier Gene and Transcript Variants: Functional, Physiologic, and Pharmacologic Consequences.

2004-09-01

Abstract excerpt

The primary route for membrane transport of reduced folates into mammalian cells and tissues is the ubiquitously expressed reduced folate carrier (RFC). RFC is also involved in specialized tissue functions related to folates, including absorption across the intestinal epithelium and transplacental transport of folates. This chapter summarizes the current understanding of the major human RFC gene and transcript var...
