Title: Cytosolic fatty acid binding proteins in rat placenta. Author: Brandes R, Arad R, Barash V. Journal: Placenta; 1987; 8(4):347-50. PubMed ID: 3684966. Abstract: Placentae from 21 days pregnant rats were assayed for long-chain fatty acid binding activity. Oleate binding activity, associated with a low-molecular-weight protein fraction resembling liver fatty acid binding protein (FABP or 'Z' protein), could be demonstrated after removal of serum albumin by fractionation of the placental cytosol on Sephadex G-75. The fatty acid binding activity in the placenta was 2 to 4 per cent of the FABP activity present in rat liver.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
