Gene Information

human ... FABP3(2170)

General description

Fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) are intracellular proteins with a low molecular weight. They exhibit high affinity for small lipophilic ligands. FABP-3 is expressed in the skeletal muscle, heart, brain and brown adipose tissue. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 1p35.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Studies suggest that fatty acid binding protein (FABPs) are involved in the uptake and metabolism of fatty acids, maintenance of cellular membrane fatty acids levels, intracellular trafficking, modulation of specific enzymes of lipid metabolic pathways, as well as in the modulation of cell growth and differentiation. FABPs have been associated with diabetes, obesity, atherosclerosis and brain function. FABP-3 has a role in glucose and lipid metabolism. It also modulates polysaturated fatty acid uptake and metabolism in neurons. The protein has been associated with schizophrenia, Down′s syndrome, Alzheimer′s disease and autism spectrum disorder.

Physical form

Sterile filtered and Lyophilized without additives.
