FOLR1, known as folate receptor alpha, is a cell surface glycoprotein that internalizes dietary folic acid for critical intracellular metabolic roles. Highly expressed in epithelial cells lining folate-absorbing lumens, including prominently in certain cancer types, FOLR1 offers a portal for targeting conjugated anti-tumor pharmaceuticals.
