Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects sideroflexin-3 (gene SFXN3) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 35.5 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 36 kDa.
Sideroflexin-3 (SFXN3) is a mitochondrial inner membrane transporter that imports serine into mitochondria. Mitochondrial serine is converted to glycine and one-carbon units that support folate-dependent biosynthesis, and SFXN3 is enriched in neurons, including at synapses.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.25 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Human) |

| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells, human U-87 MG cells.
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 0.25 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human liver cancer tissue, human lung adenocarcinoma tissue, human spleen tissue, human thyroid cancer tissue, human breast cancer tissue, human renal cancer 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 confirmed staining (ICC/IF): human renal cancer tissue.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): A549 cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human SFXN3 fragment (Asp32–Leu321), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places sideroflexin-3 in the mitochondrion 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).
