Target General Infomation
Target ID
T21507
Former ID
TTDR00309
Target Name
Fatty acid-bindingprotein, epidermal
Gene Name
FABP5
Synonyms
E-FABP; Fatty Acid BindingProtein mal1; PA-FABP; Psoriasis-associated fatty acid-binding protein homolog; FABP5
Target Type
Research
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.
BioChemical Class
Fatty acid bindingprotein
