Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets platelet glycoprotein 4 (gene CD36) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 53.1 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 88 kDa.
CD36 is a scavenger receptor that binds a wide range of ligands, including long-chain fatty acids, oxidized LDL, thrombospondin and collagen. It supports fatty acid uptake in muscle and adipose tissue, foam cell formation in macrophages and platelet responses, so it is studied in lipid metabolism, atherosclerosis and angiogenesis.

Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): HEL cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human CD36 fragment (Lys233–Asn439), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places platelet glycoprotein 4 in the cell membrane, membrane raft, Golgi apparatus and apical cell membrane. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
