Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets probable glucose sensor protein SLC5A4 in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 72.5 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 72 kDa.
SLC5A4 (SGLT3) belongs to the sodium/glucose cotransporter family but does not transport glucose. Instead it is thought to act as a glucose sensor, producing membrane depolarization when D-glucose binds.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |
|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human SH-SY5Y cells, human U2OS cells, human 293T cells, human RT4 cells, rat testis tissue, rat liver tissue, mouse testis tissue, mouse liver tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 10% 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.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the C-terminal region of human SLC5A4.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places probable glucose sensor protein SLC5A4 in the cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in skeletal muscle, where it may localize to the neuromuscular junction (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
