FABP7 (Fatty acid binding protein 7) is also known as brain fatty acid-binding protein (B-FABP) and is a member of fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) which are a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins to bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. FABP7 is expressed in radial glia by the activation of Notch receptors and binds DHA with the highest affinity among all of FABPs. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
