Fatty acid-binding protein, brain (P55051)

Uniprot ID P55051
Protein Name Fatty acid-binding protein, brain
Gene Name Fabp7
Species Rattus norvegicus (Rat)
Signal peptide(a) N Secretome P(b)
Function B-FABP could be involved in the transport of a so far unknown hydrophobic ligand with potential morphogenic activity during CNS development. It is required for the establishment of the radial glial fiber system in developing brain, a system that is necessary for the migration of immature neurons to establish cortical layers.

(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.
