Swiss-port # Q01469 Human Fatty acid-binding protein, epidermal |
|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | FABP5 |
| Gene Full Name | fatty acid binding protein 5 (psoriasis-associated) |
| Background | This gene 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 this gene are associated with type 2 diabetes. The human genome contains many pseudogenes similar to this locus.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011] |
| Function | High specificity for fatty acids. Highest affinity for C18 chain length. Decreasing the chain length or introducing double bonds reduces the affinity. May be involved in keratinocyte differentiation. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Cytoplasm. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 15 kDa |
