We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Contents

Function

One of nine known FABP, members of the superfamily of lipid-binding proteins, that are believed to be involved in fatty acid uptake, transport, and metabolism.

Structure

The FABP genes each have 4 exons and 3 introns with many residing in the same chromosomal region. Between the different know FABP the amino acid sequence varies widely but the three dimensional sequence is heavily conserved. : It consist of ten antiparallel β strands and two short α helices. The ten antiparallel β strands are arranged into two nearly orthogonal 5-stranded β sheets that surround the interior binding cavity. B-FABP is commonly bound to poly-unsaturated fatty acids; this gives the ligand in the binding region a confirmation.
