Folate receptor beta Antibodies

AND FOLR2 ELISA kits, Folate receptor beta Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect Folate receptor beta, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with Folate receptor beta in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop Folate receptor beta antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Folate receptor beta by testing them on tissues known to express FOLR2 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the FOLR2 antibody that suites your experiment. We have 6 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

FOLR2 Overview

Facts about Folate receptor beta.

FOLR2 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Folate receptor beta (FOLR2)

Binds to folate and reduced folic acid derivatives and mediates delivery of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and folate analogs to the interior of cells. Has high affinity for folate and folic acid analogs at neutral pH.

Exposure to slightly acidic pH after receptor endocytosis triggers a conformation change that dramatically reduces its affinity for folates and mediates their release. .
