Binds to folate and reduced folic acid derivatives and mediates delivery of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and folate analogs into 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 strongly reduces its affinity for folates and mediates their release. Recombinant protein corresponding to aa19-230 of human Folate Receptor Beta, fused to 10xHis-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in Baculovirus.
