function:Binds medium- and long-chain acyl-CoA esters with very high affinity and may function as an intracellular carrier of acyl-CoA esters. It is also able to displace diazepam from the benzodiazepine (BZD) recognition site located on the GABA type A receptor. It is therefore possible that this protein also acts as a neuropeptide to modulate the action of the GABA receptor.,similarity:Belongs to the ACBP family.,similarity:Contains 1 ACB (acyl-CoA-binding) domain.,subunit:Monomer.,
Endoplasmic reticulum . Golgi apparatus . Golgi localization is dependent on ligand binding (PubMed:17953517). .
Isoform 1 is ubiquitous, with a moderate expression level. Isoform 2 is ubiquitous with high level in liver and adipose tissue. Isoform 3 is ubiquitous with strong expression in adipose tissue and heart.
