Background
The intracellular fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) belongs to a multigene family. FABPs are
divided into at least three distinct types, namely the hepatic-, intestinal- and cardiac-type.
They form 14-15 kDa proteins and are thought to participate in the uptake, intracellular
metabolism and/or transport of long-chain fatty acids. They may also be responsible in the
modulation of cell growth and proliferation. Fatty acid-binding protein 3 gene contains four
exons and its function is to arrest growth of mammary epithelial cells. This gene is a
candidate tumor suppressor gene for human breast cancer. Alternative splicing results in
multiple transcript variants
