FABP1/L-FABP Antibody [Unconjugated]

Western blot shows lysates of human liver tissue, mouse liver tissue, and rat liver tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat FABP1/L-FABP Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7009) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for FABP1/L-FABP at approximately 14 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

FABP1/L-FABP was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse intestine using Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat FABP1/ L-FABP Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7009) at 1.7 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to apical portion of epithelial cells. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Frozen Tissue Sections.

Simple Western lane view shows lysates of human liver tissue, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for FABP1/L‑FABP at approximately 13 kDa (as indicated) using 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat FABP1/L‑FABP Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7009) followed by 1:50 dilution of HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the12-230 kDa separation system.

Background

FABP1 (fatty acid binding protein-1; also Liver-type fatty acid binding protein/L-FABP and 14 kDa Selenium-binding protein) is a 14-15 kDa intracellular member of the fatty acid binding protein family, calycin superfamily of molecules. It is expressed by intestinal epithelium and hepatocytes, and is known to bind both cholesterol and long-chain fatty acids in the cytosol. As fatty acids diffuse across the plasma membrane, they are sequestered by FABP1, facilitating fatty acid diffusion into the cell. FABP1 also binds bile acids and cholesterol, and transports cholesterol from one membrane compartment to another. Mouse FABP1 is 127 amino acids (aa) in length. It is a two beta -sheet molecule that contains an acetylated initiating methionine. Full-length mouse FABP1 shares 94% and 84% aa identity with rat and human FABP1, respectively.
