QuickView for FABP4 (gene)

Gene Symbol:

FABP4 Homo sapiens

Full name:

fatty acid binding protein 4

Synonyms:

A-FABP, AFABP, ALBP, HEL-S-104, aP2, fatty acid-binding protein, adipocyte, adipocyte fatty acid binding protein, adipocyte lipid-binding protein, adipocyte-type fatty acid-binding protein, epididymis secretory protein Li 104, fatty acid binding protein 4, adipocyte

Genomic Location:

Chr 8: 82553481-82558004

Description:

FABP4 encodes the fatty acid binding protein found in adipocytes. Fatty acid binding proteins are a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins that bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. It is thought that FABPs roles include fatty acid uptake, transport, and metabolism.
