Product Overview
Clone CBA-3 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes cholesteryl ester transfer protein (gene CETP) in human samples and is validated for Western blot and immunoprecipitation. The predicted molecular weight is 54.8 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 55 kDa.
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a plasma glycoprotein that moves cholesteryl esters and triglycerides between lipoprotein particles. It shifts cholesteryl esters from HDL to VLDL and LDL in exchange for triglycerides, so it is a central topic in lipoprotein metabolism and cardiovascular research.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 1:500–1:2000 |
|---|---|
| Immunoprecipitation | 1:20 |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human plasma.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human CETP.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt describes cholesteryl ester transfer protein as a secreted protein. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma. 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).
