Description
Predicted to enable long-chain fatty acid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cholesterol homeostasis; response to lipid; and triglyceride homeostasis. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and membrane. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in brain; gut; liver; and pleuroperitoneal region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcoholic liver cirrhosis; carotid stenosis; coronary artery disease; end stage renal disease; and obesity. Orthologous to human FABP2 (fatty acid binding protein 2).
