Generic protein structure example |
Solute carrier family 46 (folate transporter), member 1 (SLC46A1) also known as proton-coupled folate transporter (PCFT), is a protein which in humans is encoded by the SLC46A1 gene.[1][2][3]
Function
SLC46A1 is responsible for the intestinal uptake of folate.[4]
