Acyl CoA Binding Protein (ACBP) Gene Ablation Induces Pre-Implantation Embryonic Lethality in Mice

Unique among the intracellular lipid binding proteins, acyl CoA binding protein (ACBP) exclusively binds long chain fatty acyl CoAs (LCFA-CoAs). To test if ACBP is an essential protein in mammals, the ACBP gene was ablated by homologous recombination in mice. While ACBP heterozygotes appeared phenot...
