ADFP
Introduction
Adipose differentiation-related protein, also known as ADFP, is a human gene.[1]
Adipocyte differentiation-related protein is associated with the globule surface membrane material. This protein is a major constituent of the globule surface. Increase in mRNA levels is one of the earliest indications of adipocyte differentiation[1]
