Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects transforming growth factor beta receptor type 3 (gene TGFBR3) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 93.5 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 150 kDa.
TGF-β receptor type 3 (TGFBR3, also called betaglycan) is a proteoglycan co-receptor with no kinase activity. It binds TGF-β isoforms, inhibin and some BMPs and presents them to signaling receptors, notably enhancing TGF-β2 signaling, and it is studied in development and cancer.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|---|
| Flow cytometry (fixed cells) | 1–3 µg/1×106 cells (Human) |
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human A549 cells, human HeLa 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 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): HeLa cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human TGF beta Receptor III/TGFBR3 fragment (His37–Arg649), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt describes transforming growth factor beta receptor type 3 as secreted and also located in the cell membrane. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
