Description
Predicted to enable fatty acid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within eye development. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; cardiovascular system; eye; immature eye; and pleuroperitoneal region. Orthologous to several human genes including FABP4 (fatty acid binding protein 4) and FABP9 (fatty acid binding protein 9).
