Preferred Label : diazepam binding inhibitor;
MeSH definition : An 86-amino acid polypeptide, found in central and peripheral tissues, that displaces
diazepam from the benzodiazepine recognition site on the gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor
(RECEPTORS, GABA). It also binds medium- and long-chain acyl-CoA esters and serves
as an acyl-CoA transporter. This peptide regulates lipid metabolism.;
MeSH synonym : acyl coa binding protein; acyl-coa-binding protein; binding inhibitor, diazepam; dbi peptide; endozepine; epdbi; inhibitor, diazepam binding; protein, acyl-coa-binding; peptide, dbi;
MeSH hyponym : Medium-Chain acyl CoA-Binding protein; Medium Chain Acyl CoA Binding Protein;
Is substance : O;
Origin ID : D026261;
UMLS CUI : C0057738;
