Target Information
Bovine Fatty Acid Binding Protein 6 (FABP6), also known as ileal lipid-binding protein, is a member of the fatty acid-binding protein family. This protein is primarily expressed in the ileum, where it plays a crucial role in the absorption of bile acids and the enterohepatic circulation of lipids. FABP6 has a high affinity for bile acids and is involved in the transport and metabolism of fatty acids within the cell. It is thought that FABP6's roles include facilitating the uptake of fatty acids by cells, participating in the intracellular transport of these molecules, and contributing to lipid metabolism. The protein is also a downstream target of the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), indicating its involvement in FXR signaling, which is important for maintaining lipid homeostasis. In veterinary medicine, understanding FABP6's function can aid in the study of lipid metabolism and the development of treatments for lipid-related disorders in cattle
