Biological background

Biological context: Antigen-presenting protein that binds self and non-self lipid and glycolipid antigens and presents them to T-cell receptors on natural killer T-cells.

Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Cell membrane., tissue context: Expressed on cortical thymocytes, on certain T-cell leukemias, and in various other tissues..

Common research applications

• Western blotting (WB): Compare CD36 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
• Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of CD36 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
• Flow cytometry: Quantify CD36-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
• ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.

Notes for experimental interpretation

• Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
• Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.

Additional product notes (from provided fields)

• Background: CD36 (cluster of differentiation 36), also known as FAT (fatty acid translocase), FAT/CD36, (FAT)/CD36, SCARB3, GP88, glycoprotein IV (gpIV), and glycoprotein IIIb (gpIIIb), is anintegral membrane protein found on the surface of many cell types in vertebrate animals. CD36 is a member of the class B scavenger receptor family of cell surface proteins. It is mapped to 7q21.11. And CD36 binds many ligands including collagen, thrombospondin, erythrocytes parasitized with Plasmodium falciparum, oxidized low absorbance lipoprotein, native lipoproteins, oxidized phospholipids, and long-chain fatty acids. In addition, CD36 function in long-chain fatty acid uptake and signaling can be irreversibly inhibited by sulfo-N-succinimidyl oleate (SSO), which binds lysine 164 within a hydrophobic pocked shared by several CD36 ligands, e.g. fatty acid and oxLDL.
• Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
• Cellular localization: Cell membrane.
• Tissue details: Expressed on cortical thymocytes, on certain T-cell leukemias, and in various other tissues.
• Research category: Adaptive Immunity,Immunoglobulins,Immunology,Receptors,T Cells
