FABP5 Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Anti-FABP5 Polyclonal Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

FABP5 encodes the fatty acid binding protein found in epidermal cells, and was first identified as being upregulated in psoriasis tissue. Fatty acid binding proteins are a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins that bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. FABPs may play roles in fatty acid uptake, transport, and metabolism. Polymorphisms in FABP5 are associated with type 2 diabetes. The human genome contains many pseudogenes similar to this locus.
