A Novel Missense SNP in the Fatty Acid-Binding Protein 4 (FABP4) Gene is Associated with Growth Traits in Karakul and Awassi Sheep.

Biochemical genetics - 1 Jun 2024

Abstract excerpt

The fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4) plays a crucial role in the transportation and metabolism of fatty acids. It binds to long-chain fatty acids and facilitates their transport within cells. FABP4 is involved in lipid metabolism, insulin sensitivity, inflammation, and energy homeostasis. This study was conducted to assess the association between the FABP4 gene and growth traits in Karakul and Awassi sheep. A...
