• Specificity: Clone 3B15 is a ZooMAb rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects Scavenger receptor class B member 1 (SCARB1). It targets an epitope within 25 amino acids from the N-terminal region.
• Immunogen: KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to 25 amino acids from the N-terminal, extracellular domain of human Scavenger receptor class B member 1 (SCARB1).
• Application: Quality Control TestingWestern Blotting Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected SCARB1 in Human adrenal gland tissue lysate.Tested applicationsWestern Blotting Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected SCARB1 in HeLa Membrane extract.Affinity Binding Assay: A representative lot of this antibody bound SCARB1 peptide with a KD of 5.8 x 10-9 in an affinity binding assay.Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected SCARB1 in human adrenal gland tissue sections.Note: Actual optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user as specimens, and experimental conditions may vary with the end user
• Target description: Scavenger receptor class B member 1 (UniProt: Q8WTV0; also known as SCARB1, SRB1, CD36 and LIMPII analogous 1, CLA-1, CD36 antigen-like 1, Collagen type I receptor, thrombospondin receptor-like 1, SR-BI, CD36) is encoded by the SCARB1 (also known as CD36L1, CLA1) gene (Gene ID: 949) in human. SCARB1 is a widely expressed, multi-pass membrane glycoprotein with two cytoplasmic domains (aa 1-11 and 465-552), one extracellular domain (aa 33-443) and two transmembrane domains (aa 12-32 and 444-464). It serves as a receptor for several different ligands such as phospholipids, cholesterol ester, lipoproteins, and phosphatidylserine. It also serves as a receptor for HDL and mediates selective uptake of cholesteryl ether and HDL-dependent cholesterol efflux. It is reported to facilitate the flux of free and esterified cholesterol between the cell surface and ApoB-containing lipoproteins and modified lipoproteins, although less efficiently than HDL. SCRAB1 is also involved in phagocytosis of apoptotic cells, via its phosphatidylserine binding activity. Elevated expression of SCARB1 has been reported in a wide variety of malignant cell lines such as breast, prostate, ovarian, pancreatic, nasopharyngeal, and colorectal cancers. In hepatocytes, it is reported to act as a receptor for hepatitis C virus and facilitates virus entry into cells. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
