Rabbit Anti-Fatty Acid Binding Protein 1 (Fatty Acid-binding Protein 1, FABP1, FABPL, Liver Fatty Acid Binding Protein, Liver-type Fatty Acid-binding Protein, L-FABP)
Fatty Acid-binding Protein, Liver
Fatty acid-binding protein, liver (FABP1) is a lipid transport protein which binds long chain fatty acids and delivers them to their receptors in the nucleus. FABP1 also binds bile acids. FABP1 is found in liver and is a sensitive marker for cell damage of liver cells.
