Other Information

## Summary The FABP2 gene encodes a protein that is expressed in various cells in the body, particularly in epithelial cells of the intestine and colon. It is involved in the metabolism of fatty acids and plays a role in maintaining intestinal health. ## Key characteristics * The protein is a member of the FABP family of fatty acid binding proteins. * It is expressed in high levels in the intestine and colon. * It is involved in the transport and metabolism of fatty acids, including long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs). * It is also involved in the regulation of intestinal inflammation. ## Pathways and functions * FABP2 is involved in the apical-cortical pathway of fatty acid metabolism. * It is also involved in the regulation of the intestinal epithelial barrier. * It plays a role in the absorption of LCFAs from the intestinal lumen. * It is involved in the regulation of intestinal inflammation. ## Clinical significance Mutations in the FABP2 gene have been linked to several human diseases, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. These diseases are characterized by inflammation and damage to the intestinal tract. FABP2 is a potential target for the treatment of these diseases. ## Conclusion FABP2 is a key protein involved in the metabolism of fatty acids in the intestine and colon. Its mutations have been linked to several human diseases, underscoring its importance for intestinal health.
