About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for SLC46A1:
This gene encodes a transmembrane proton-coupled folate transporter protein that facilitates the movement of folate and
antifolate substrates across cell membranes optimally in acidic pH environments. This protein is also expressed in the
brain and choroid plexus where it transports folates into the central nervous system. This protein further functions
as a transmembrane heme transporter in duodenal enterocytes and, potentially, in other tissues like liver and kidney.
Its localization to the apical membrane or cytoplasm of intestinal cells is modulated by dietary iron levels.
Mutations in this gene cause the autosomal recessive hereditary folate malabsorption (HFM) disease. HFM is
characterized by folate deficiency due to reduced intestinal folate absorption and subsequent anemia,
hypoimmunoglobulinemia, and recurrent infections. (provided by RefSeq)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PCFT_HUMAN, Q96NT5
Function: Has been shown to act both as an intestinal proton-coupled high-affinity folate transporter and as an
intestinal heme transporter which 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. Dietary heme iron is an important nutritional
source of iron. Shows a higher affinity for folate than heme

  • Defects in SLC46A1 are the cause of hereditary folate malabsorption (HFM) [MIM:229050]. HFM is a rare
  • autosomal recessive disorder characterized by impaired intestinal folate absorption with folate deficiency resulting
    in anemia, hypoimmunoglobulinemia with recurrent infections, and recurrent or chronic diarrhea. In many patients,
    neurological abnormalities such as seizures or mental retardation become apparent during early childhood, attributed
    to impaired transport of folates into the central nervous system. When diagnosed early, the disorder can be treated by
    administration of folate. If untreated, it can be fatal and, if treatment is delayed, the neurological defects can
    become permanent
