Erythrocytes, or red blood cells, are the functional component of blood responsible for the transportation of gases and nutrients throughout the body.

CD36

Alternative names Fatty acid translocase, Glycoprotein IIIb, GP3B, GP4, GPIV, PASIV, SCARB3

Facilitates tissue fatty acid uptake and oxidation. Involved in signal transduction in immunity and atherosclerosis. High affinity receptor for native lipoproteins HDL, LDL and VLDL.

We recommend

Anti-CD36 antibody [EPR22509-40] (ab252922)

CD235a

Alternative names Glycophorin-A, GYPA, MNS

Carries blood group antigens, major erythrocyte intrinsic membrane protein. Minimizes erythrocyte aggregation. A receptor for influenza virus, Plasmodium falciparum and Hepatitis A virus.

We recommend

Anti-Glycophorin A antibody [EPR8200] (ab129024)

Anti-Glycophorin A + B antibody [HIR2] (ab15009)
