Fatty acid transfer from intestinal fatty acid binding protein to membranes: electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions

Fatty acid transfer from intestinal fatty acid binding protein to membranes: electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions

Intestinal fatty acid binding protein (IFABP) is thought to participate in the intracellular transport of fatty acids (FAs). Fatty acid transfer from IFABP to phospholipid membranes is proposed to occur during protein-membrane collisional interactions. In this study, we analyzed the participation of...
