Recombinant Human FABP2 protein

SKU: CD01836

Size:5 ug

Background:FABP2, also called intestinal-type fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP or FABPI) and gut FABP (gFABP), is a member of the cytosolic fatty acid binding protein family. FABP2 mediates the absorption and intracellular transport of dietary long-chain fatty acids. Genetic variations of FABP2 are implicated in obesity and Type II diabetes. Human FABP2 shares 86 %, 85 %, and 82 % a.a. sequence identity with canine, porcine, and rat FABP2, respectively.
