The Folate Receptor 1 (adult) ELISA kits listed below are analytical tools for measuring concentrations of Folate Receptor 1 (adult) in various samples. Folate Receptor 1 (adult) is an alternative name for the human FOLR1 gene, which encodes the protein, folate receptor alpha. It has been mentioned that Folate Receptor 1 (adult) plays a role in cell adhesion, among other functions. Structurally, the FOLR1 protein is described to be 257 amino acid residues in length and 29.8 kilodaltons in mass. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasmic vesicles, cell membrane, and is secreted. In terms of tissue specificity, it is notably expressed in tissues of epithelial origin. This protein is known to be cleaved and glycosylated. Other names for this target antigen include FBP, FOLR, and FRalpha.
The detection range for different Folate Receptor 1 (adult) ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 15.6 pg/mL and as high as 1000 pg/mL. Click on the following ELISA kits for more detailed information, including target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
