Teleost fishes differ from mammals in their fat deposition and distribution. The gene for adipocyte-type fatty acid-binding protein (A-FABP or FABP4) has not been identified thus far in fishes. We have determined the cDNA sequence and defined the structure of a fatty acid-binding protein gene (designated fabp4) from the zebrafish genome. | ỊFEBS Journal The fabp4 gene of zebrafish Danio rerio - genomic homology with the mammalian FABP4 and divergence from the zebrafish fabp3 in developmental expression Rong-Zong Liu1 Vishal Saxena1 Mukesh K.

The gene for adipocyte-type fatty acid-binding protein A-FABP or FABP4 has not been identified thus far in fishes. We have determined the cDNA sequence and defined the structure of a fatty acid-binding protein gene designated fabp4 from the zebrafish genome. The polypeptide sequence encoded by zebrafish fabp4 showed highest identity to the Had-FABP or H6-FABP from Antarctic fishes and the putative orthologs from other teleost fishes 83-88 . Phylogenetic analysis clustered the zebrafish FABP4 with all Antarctic fish H6-FABPs and putative FABP4s from other fishes in a single clade and then with the mammalian FABP4s in an extended clade. Zebrafish fabp4 was assigned to linkage group 19 at a distinct locus from fabp3. A number of closely linked syntenic genes surrounding the zebrafish fabp4 locus were found to be conserved with human FABP4. The zebrafish fabp4 transcripts showed sequential distribution in the .
