Description
Description: FABP1 Human Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 127 amino acids and having a total molecular mass of 14.2kDa (calculated).
Introduction: FABP1 (Fatty acid binding protein1) encodes the fatty acid binding protein found in liver. FABP1 is composed of ten antiparallel beta strands that form a barrel with a bigger binding pocket than the other FABPs allowing it to accommodate two fatty acid. This protein binds free fatty acids and their coenzyme A derivatives, bilirubin, and some other small molecules in the cytoplasm; it may be involved in intracellular lipid transport and metabolism
