Target Details for Dihydrofolate Reductase

Target: Dihydrofolate Reductase (DHFR)

Alternative Name: DHFR

Background:

Synonyms: Dihydrofolate reductase, DHFR

Tissue Specificity: Widely expressed in fetal and adult tissues, including throughout the fetal and adult brains and whole blood. Expression is higher in the adult brain than in the fetal brain.

Background: SHC, also known as SHC1 (SHC-transforming protein 1) or SHCA, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SHC1 gene. SCOP classifies the 3D structure as belonging to the SH2 domain family. This gene encodes three main isoforms that differ in activities and subcellular location. While all three are adapter proteins in signal transduction pathways, the longest (p66Shc) may be involved in regulating life span and the effects of reactive oxygen species. The other two isoforms, p52Shc and p46Shc, link activated receptor tyrosine kinases to the Ras pathway by recruitment of the GRB2/SOS complex. p66Shc is not involved in Ras activation. Unlike the other two isoforms, p46Shc is targeted to the mitochondrial matrix. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
