Fabp1, also known as Fatty acid-binding protein, liver, is composed of ten antiparallel beta strands that form a barrel with a bigger binding pocket than the other FABPs allowing it to accommodate two fatty acid. This protein binds free fatty acids and their coenzyme A derivatives, bilirubin, and some other small molecules in the cytoplasm, it may be involved in intracellular lipid transport and metabolism. Recombinant mouse Fabp1, fused to His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
