Crystal Structure of human FABP4 in complex with 2-[[5-bromo-2-(3-cyclopropyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)phenyl]carbamoyl]cyclopentene-1-carboxylic acid, i.e. SMILES C1(=C(CCC1)C(=O)O)C(=O)Nc1cc(ccc1C1=NC(=NO1)C1CC1)Br with IC50=0.333165 microM
Lipocalin / cytosolic fatty-acid binding protein family
Lipocalins are transporters for small hydrophobic molecules, such as lipids, steroid hormones, bilins, and retinoids. The family also encompasses the enzyme prostaglandin D synthase (EC:5.3.99.2). Alignment subsumes both the lipocalin and fatty acid ...
Lipocalins are transporters for small hydrophobic molecules, such as lipids, steroid hormones, bilins, and retinoids. The family also encompasses the enzyme prostaglandin D synthase (EC:5.3.99.2). Alignment subsumes both the lipocalin and fatty acid binding protein signatures from PROSITE. This is supported on structural and functional grounds. The structure is an eight-stranded beta barrel.
