Functional domains of the fatty acid transport proteins: studies using protein chimeras.

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 1 Mar 2008

DiRusso Concetta C, Darwis Dina, Obermeyer Thomas, Black Paul N

Abstract excerpt

Fatty acid transport proteins (FATP) function in fatty acid trafficking pathways, several of which have been shown to participate in the transport of exogenous fatty acids into the cell. Members of this protein family also function as acyl CoA synthetases with specificity towards very long chain fatty acids or bile acids. These proteins have two identifying sequence motifs: The ATP/AMP motif, an approximately 100...
