FABP5 Antibodies
AND FABP5 ELISA kits, FABP5 Proteins
Many biological assays use antibodies to detect FABP5, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with FABP5 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop FABP5 antibodies...
Designing a Western blot for FABP5? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.

FABP5 Overview
Facts about Fatty acid-binding protein 5.
Fatty acid-binding protein 5 (FABP5)
Intracellular carrier for long-chain fatty acids and related active lipids, like the endocannabinoid, that regulates the metabolism and activities of the ligands they bind. Along with the cytosolic transport, selectively delivers specific fatty acids from the cytosol to the nucleus, wherein they trigger nuclear receptors (PubMed:22170058).
Delivers retinoic acid to the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta; that promotes proliferation and survival. May also function as a synaptic provider of endocannabinoid at central synapses and thus controls retrograde endocannabinoid signaling.

Tissue Specificity
Keratinocytes; highly expressed in psoriatic skin.
Subcellular Localizations
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Cell junction, synapse. Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic density. Secreted. Localizes primarily to the cytoplasm. Upon certain ligand binding, a conformation change exposes a nuclear localization motif and the protein is transported into nucleus (PubMed:24692551). Secreted by astrocytes, but not by neurons (By similarity).
