Crystal structure of human adipocyte fatty acid binding protein in complex with a carboxylic acid ligand
The structure was published by Lehmann, F., Haile, S., Axen, E., et al., Lundback, T., Rondahl, L., and Barf, T., in 2004 in a paper entitled "Discovery of inhibitors of human adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein, a potential type 2 diabetes target." (abstract).
This crystal structure
was determined using
X-ray diffraction
at a resolution of 2.0 Å and deposited in 2004.
The experimental data on which the structure is based was also deposited.
The PDB entry contains the structure of Fatty acid-binding protein, adipocyte.
This molecule has the UniProt identifier P15090 (FABP4_HUMAN). The sample contained 131 residues which is 99% of the natural sequence. Out of 131 residues 131 were observed and are deposited in the PDB.
It also contains one or more heterogenic compounds (e.g., ligands, co-factors, ions, modified amino acids, etc.); see here for a complete list.
The molecule is most likely monomeric.
