| Biochem/physiol Actions: | FABPs (fatty acid-binding proteins) bind saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acids reversibly and might be involved in the transport of lipids to specific cellular compartments. FABP5 (fatty acid binding protein 5) serves as a transporter for endocannabinoid. FABP5 is also known as epidermal FABP (E-FABP) or mal1. FABP5 is significantly associated with the development of insulin resistance and atherosclerosis. This gene was found to be overexpressed in cervical cancer and it serves as an important biomarker for cervical cancer. In vitro study proves that FABP5 is necessary for cell proliferation, colony formation, cell migration, and invasion of cervical cancer. FABP5 is associated with cancer types such as bladder, pancreas, prostate, breast cancer and glioblastoma. |

| General description: | This gene encodes the fatty acid binding protein found in epidermal cells, and was first identified as being upregulated in psoriasis tissue. Fatty acid binding proteins are a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins that bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. It is thought that FABPs roles include fatty acid uptake, transport, and metabolism. The human genome contains many pseudogenes similar to this locus. (provided by RefSeq) |
