Anti-SLC27A4 Antibody

The Anti-SLC27A4 polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets human Fatty Acid Transport Protein 4 (FATP4), an integral membrane transporter encoded by the SLC27A4 gene on chromosome 9q34.11. FATP4 mediates cellular uptake of long-chain fatty acids and exhibits acyl-CoA synthetase activity, coupling lipid transport with metabolic activation. Loss-of-function mutations in this transporter underlie Ichthyosis Prematurity Syndrome, and altered FATP4 expression has been investigated in metabolic and dermatological research contexts.

Raised in rabbit, this IgG polyclonal reagent is provided as 100 µl of unconjugated antiserum for Western blot detection of the human target. For best results, refrigerate working aliquots and limit freeze-thaw cycles to preserve binding activity. Researchers probing fatty acid transport, lipid metabolism, or epidermal barrier biology can apply this reagent in standard western blot workflows alongside appropriate loading controls.
