The intracellular fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) are abundantly expressed in almost all
tissues. They exhibit high affinity binding of a single long-chain fatty acid, with the exception …

Fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) were first identified in the cytosol of rat intestinal mucosa
during studies on the regulation of intestinal fatty acid uptake. The subsequent finding of …

Fatty acid–binding proteins (FABPs) are small lipid-binding proteins abundantly expressed
in tissues that are highly active in fatty acid (FA) metabolism. Ten mammalian FABPs have …

While low levels of unesterified long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) are normal metabolic
intermediates of dietary and endogenous fat, LCFAs are also potent regulators of key …

Fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) belong to the conserved multigene family of the
intracellular lipid-binding proteins (iLBPs). These proteins are ubiquitously expressed in …

The mammalian FA-binding proteins (FABPs) bind long-chain FA with high affinity. The large
number of FABP types is suggestive of distinct functions in specific tissues. Multiple …

Fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) are members of a superfamily of lipid-binding proteins,
and occur intracellularly in vertebrates and invertebrates. This review presents recent …

Cytosolic long-chain fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) are found in tissues that metabolize
fatty acids. Like most lipid binding proteins, their specific functions remain unclear. Two …
