Data suggest that the malabsorption of folate in the colon associated with alcoholism is due, in part, to down-regulation of folate transporter expression and association with lipid rafts (for both PCFT/Slc46a1 and reduced folate carrier/Slc19a1).

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.
