FABP-6 is a cytosolic protein that binds bile acids with a high affinity. In the small intestine, its expression is restricted to the ileum where it is involved in the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids. Alternate transcription promoters generate two transcript variants, encoding a 128aa and a 177aa residue protein. Human FABP6 isoform 2 contains 128aa residues and is believed to be acetylated on Ala2. It binds both fatty acids and bile acids and has roles in fatty acid transport and metabolism. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-128 of human FABP-6 expressed in E. coli.
