Uniprot ID P04117
Protein Name Fatty acid-binding protein, adipocyte
Gene Name Fabp4
Species Mus musculus (Mouse)
Signal peptide(a) N Secretome P(b) 0.883
Function Lipid transport protein in adipocytes. Binds both long chain fatty acids and retinoic acid. Delivers long-chain fatty acids and retinoic acid to their cognate receptors in the nucleus. .

(a) The Signal peptide D-score cutoff for "YES"(having signal peptide) is 0.45.
(b) Non-classically secreted proteins should obtain an NN-score(Neural Networks score) exceeding the normal threshold of 0.5, but not at the same time be predicted to contain a signal peptide.
