Fatty Acid Transport Protein 2 (FATP2)
- Target
- FATP2
- Molecular classification
- Transporter, Solute Carrier
01
Overview
FATP2, also known as SLC27A2, is a fatty acid transport protein that facilitates the uptake of long-chain fatty acids into hepatocytes. It plays a role in hepatic lipid metabolism, and its overexpression can contribute to steatosis. It is considered a potential therapeutic target for NAFLD/MAFLD.
