Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionlbp-7 encodes a predicted intracellular fatty acid binding protein (iFABP) that is most similar to the vertebrate muscle and heart FABPs; by homology, LBP-7 is predicted to function as an intracellular transporter for small hydrophobic molecules such as lipids and steroid hormones; as loss of lbp-7 activity via large-scale RNAi screens does not result in any obvious abnormalities, the precise role of LBP-7 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00003911

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable fatty acid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid transport. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1G; Down syndrome; and artery disease (multiple). Is an ortholog of several human genes including FABP3 (fatty acid binding protein 3); FABP7 (fatty acid binding protein 7); and PMP2 (peripheral myelin protein 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (12)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
