Detail: Structure Info

Synonyms G21; HCP1; Heme carrier protein 1; PCFT; PCFT/HCP1; SLC46A1; Solute carrier family 46 member 1
DT Family Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS)
Proton Coupled Folate Transporter/Heme Carrier Protein (PCFT/HCP) Family
Tissue Specificity Expressed in kidney, liver, placenta, smallintestine, spleen, retina and retinal pigment epithelium. Lowerlevels found in colon and testis. Very low levels in brain, lung,stomach, heart and muscle. In intestine, expressed in duodenumwith lower levels in jejunum, ileum, cecum, rectum and segments ofthe colon.
Function This transporter mediates the transport of folate and heme in intestinal. Mediates heme uptake from the gut lumen into duodenal epithelial cells. The iron is then released from heme and may be transported into the bloodstream.
