Folate Receptor 2 (FOLR2), also known as Folate Receptor beta, is a 38 kDa glycoprotein that is anchored to the membrane via glycosyl phosphatidylinositol. It mediates the cellular uptake of dietary folates that are required for key steps in amino acid metabolism. FOLR2 is predominantly expressed in placenta, myeloid cells, and some CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells. It is upregulated on some cancer cells and at sites of chronic inflammation.
