Summary
The membrane protein encoded by this gene is a transporter of folate and is involved in the regulation of intracellular concentrations of folate. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
Annotation information
Note: RFC1 (GeneID: 5981) and SLC19A1 (GeneID: 6573) share the RFC1 symbol/alias in common. RFC1 is the official symbol for the gene name 'replication factor C subunit 1' and is an alias for 'reduced folate carrier 1' on the 'solute carrier family 19 member 1' gene. [18 May 2018]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
