Description: | ACBP, also known as ACBD1, is a diazepam binding inhibitor, a protein that is regulated by hormones and is involved in lipid metabolism and the displacement of beta-carbolines and benzodiazepines, which modulate signal transduction at type A gamma-aminobutyric acid receptors located in brain synapses. Expression of ACBP is significantly induced during adipocyte differentiation. ACBP is a target for proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) gamma, and is directly activated by PPARgamma/RXRalpha and PPARalpha/RXRalpha, but not by PPARdelta/RXRalpha. Recombinant human ACBP protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques. |
