Background
Fatty acid-binding protein, intestinal, Fatty acid-binding protein 2, Intestinal-type fatty acid-binding protein, I-FABPThe protein encoded by FABP2 is an intracellular fatty acid-binding protein that participates in the uptake, intracellular metabolism, and transport of long-chain fatty acids. The encoded protein is also involved in the modulation of cell growth and proliferation. This protein binds saturated long-chain fatty acids with high affinity, and may act as a lipid sensor to maintain energy homeostasis. FABP2 (Fatty Acid Binding Protein 2) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with FABP2 include Perinatal Necrotizing Enterocolitis and Refractory Celiac Disease. Among its related pathways are Metabolism and Lipoprotein metabolism.
