SLC19A1 [ENSP00000308895]

Reduced folate transporter; Transporter that mediates the import of reduced folates and a subset of cyclic dinucleotides (PubMed:7826387, PubMed:9041240, PubMed:10787414, PubMed:15337749, PubMed:16115875, PubMed:31126740, PubMed:31511694). Has high affinity for N5-methyltetrahydrofolate, the predominant circulating form of folate (PubMed:10787414, PubMed:14609557, PubMed:22554803). Also able to mediate the import of antifolate drug methotrexate (PubMed:7615551, PubMed:7641195, PubMed:9767079, PubMed:22554803). Acts as an importer of immunoreactive cyclic dinucleotides, such as cyclic GMP-AMP (2'-3'-cGAMP), an immune messenger produced in response to DNA virus in the cytosol, and its linkage isomer 3'-3'-cGAMP . Mechanistically, acts as an antiporter, which export of intracellular organic anions to facilitate uptake of its substrates (PubMed:22554803, PubMed:31126740, PubMed:31511694). 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside (AICAR), when phosphorylated to AICAR monophosphate, can serve as an organic anion for antiporter activity .
