The protein acts as a glutamate carboxypeptidase on different alternative substrates, including the nutrient folate and the neuropeptide N-acetyl-l-aspartyl-l-glutamate and is expressed in a number of tissues such as prostate, central and peripheral nervous system and kidney.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey elements and design rationale\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel identity:\u003c\/strong\u003e FOLH1 and GFP Expressing U87-MG\/ΔEGFR Stable Cell Line is supplied as a tumor cell line derived from Human brain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth properties:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adherent, epithelial-like\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth conditions:\u003c\/strong\u003e PriCoat™ T25 Flasks (G299) or Applied Cell Extracellular Matrix (G422) are recommended for optimal cell culture.

Expression of this protein in the brain may be involved in a number of pathological conditions associated with glutamate excitotoxicity. This protein is up-regulated in prostate cancer cells and is used as an effective diagnostic and prognostic indicator of prostate cancer. Thus, this cell line could be helpful in the field of prostate cancer drug discovery.
