Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes C-type lectin domain family 7 member A (gene Clec7a) in mouse samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 27.4 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 33 kDa.
Dectin-1 (CLEC7A) is a pattern recognition receptor on myeloid cells that binds β-glucans in fungal and some bacterial cell walls. It triggers phagocytosis, reactive oxygen production and cytokine release, partly in cooperation with TLR2, and it is a central molecule in studies of antifungal immunity.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Mouse) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Mouse) |
| Flow cytometry (fixed cells) | 1–3 µg/1×106 cells (Mouse) |
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): mouse spleen tissue, mouse thymus tissue.
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 confirmed staining (IHC): mouse spleen tissue, mouse lung tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): ANA-1 cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant mouse Dectin-1/Clec7a fragment (Gln17–Leu244), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with mouse. UniProt places C-type lectin domain family 7 member A in the cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (mouse): Detected in spleen (at protein level). 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).
