Synonyms | FABPI |
Function | FABPs are thought to play a role in the intracellular transport of long-chain fatty acids and their acyl-CoA esters. FABP2 is probably involved in triglyceride-rich lipoprotein synthesis. Binds saturated long-chain fatty acids with a high affinity, but binds with a lower affinity to unsaturated long-chain fatty acids. FABP2 may also help maintain energy homeostasis by functioning as a lipid sensor. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. |
Tissue Location | Expressed in the small intestine and at much lower levels in the large intestine. Highest expression levels in the jejunum. |
