About Fabp7

Summary

Predicted to enable fatty acid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cell proliferation in forebrain; neurogenesis; and prepulse inhibition. Located in several cellular components, including cell projection; cell-cell junction; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; cranial nerve; gut; peripheral nervous system; and retina. Orthologous to human FABP7 (fatty acid binding protein 7).
