CD36 (fatty acid translocase, FAT) is an 88 kDa ditopic glycosylated protein that belongs to the class B family of scavenger receptors. CD36 is expressed by most resting marginal zone B cells but not by follicular and B1 B cells, and it is rapidly induced on Follicular B cells in vitro upon TLR and CD40 stimulation. CD36 does not affect the development of B cells, but modulates both primary and secondary antibody response. Similarly to glucose transporter GLUT4, CD36 is translocated from intracellular pools to the plasma membrane following cell stimulation by insulin. In mouse, CD36 is responsible for gustatory perception of long-chain fatty acids.

Target	CD36
Reactivity	Human
Host	Mouse
Clonality	Monoclonal
Tested Applications	FCM
Recommended dilutions	FCM: 20 μl/1 million cells. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
Immunogen	Platelets.
Purification	Affinity Chromatography
Form	Liquid
Isotype	IgG1
Conjugation	FITC
Specificity	The antibody TR9 cross-blocks binding of FITC-labeled standard antibody OKM5. CD36 is cell adhesion molecule in platelet in adhesion and aggregation, platelet-monocyte and platelet-tumor cell interation. CD36 is expressed on platelets, macrophages, endothelial cells, early erythroid cells and megakaryocytes. Anti-CD36 antibodies clone TR9, inhibit adhesion function (e.g. adherence of infected erythrocytes to target cells).
