Product Overview
Clone 17F58 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes fatty acid-binding protein, heart (gene FABP3) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot and IHC. The predicted molecular weight is 14.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 15 kDa.
Heart fatty acid-binding protein (FABP3, H-FABP) is a small cytosolic protein abundant in cardiac and skeletal muscle. It carries long-chain fatty acids to sites of oxidation for energy production. Because it is released quickly from damaged cardiomyocytes, H-FABP is studied as an early marker of myocardial injury.

|---|---|
| Immunohistochemistry | 1:50–1:200 |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): mouse heart tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 12% SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 1:500 overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human FABP3.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places fatty acid-binding protein, heart in the cytoplasm. 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).
