FABP6 Antibody (C-term) Blocking Peptide

Background:
FABP6 is the ileal fatty acid binding protein. Fatty acid binding proteins are a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins that bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. FABP6 and FABP1 (the liver fatty acid binding protein) are also able to bind bile acids. It is thought that FABPs roles include fatty acid uptake, transport, and metabolism.

Other Names:
Gastrotropin, GT, Fatty acid-binding protein 6, Ileal lipid-binding protein, ILBP, Intestinal 15 kDa protein, I-15P, Intestinal bile acid-binding protein, I-BABP, FABP6, ILBP, ILLBP

Target/Specificity:
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP8928b was selected from the C-term region of human FABP6. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.
