Fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) are carrier proteins for fatty acids and other lipophilic substances. They facilitate the transfer of fatty acids between extra- and intracellular membranes. FABS coordinate lipid trafficking and signaling in cells[1]. Various FABS differ in their tissue expression.
