Background: SR-BI

SR-BI (scavenger receptor class B member 1, SCARB1) belongs to the CD36 family and acts as a cell surface lipoprotein receptor for a variety of ligands including high density lipoprotein (HDL), phospholipids, phosphatidylserine, and lipoproteins such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS). SR-BI mediates selective uptake of HDL cholesteryl (HDL-C) ester in the liver, steroidogenic tissues, and adipose tissue and facilitates the flux of free and esterified cholesterol between the cell surface and apoB-containing lipoproteins and modified lipoproteins. SR-BI plays a role in antigen capture and cross-presentation from bacteria, parasites, and viruses such as Hepatitis C. In endothelial cells and macrophages, SR-BI is involved in anti-inflammatory and pro-survival signaling, providing protection against atherosclerosis and clearing apoptotic cells (efferocytosis) (1, 2).

At least 5 different human splice variants have been identified with theoretical molecular weights ranging from 60.9 kDa for the canonical sequence to 45 kDa for an N-terminally truncated variant (SR-BII) (3). The extracellular domain of human SR-BI (CLA-1) shares 80%, 80%, 89%, 86% and 84% aa sequence identity with mouse, rat, porcine, rabbit, and bovine SR-BI, respectively. SR-BI is highly glycosylated and removal of N-linked glycosylation reduces lipid transport.

Protocols

View specific protocols for SR-BI Antibody - BSA Free (NB400-113):


Blocking Protocol

1) Transfect 293 cells or Cos cells or any easily transfectable cell line with SR-BI.

2) Next day, add DMEM with 0.2% BSA to the media plus 1:500 dilution (or 1:1000) dilution of the SR-BI blocking ab. Incubate for 30 minutes to 1 hour at 37 deg C.

3) Add 1 to 10ug/ml of radiolabeled or fluorescent HDL (labeled either on the lipid or protein) to cells for 1 to 2 hours (in the presence of the blocking antibody). For control cells, do not add blocking antibody.

4) Wash cells 3 to 4 times with ice cold PBS.

5) Measure HDL uptake by appropriate method (depending on label on HDL).

Note: As a positive control, you can add an excess (100-fold more) of unlabeled HDL to cells together with the label. This should block the uptake of labeled HDL by 80% or more. This positive control should tell you that your cells are expressing functional SR-BI. Also, cells not receiving either unlabeled HDL or no blocking ab should tell you that your cells are expressing functional SR-BI.


Immunocytochemistry Protocol

Culture cells to appropriate density on suitable glass coverslips in 35 mm culture dishes or 6-well plates.

1. Remove culture medium and add 10% formalin to the dish. Fix at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.
2. Remove the formalin and add 0.5% Triton-X 100 in TBS to permeabilize the cells. Incubate for 5-10 minutes.
3. Remove the permeabilization buffer and add wash buffer (i.e. PBS or PBS with 0.1% Tween-20). Be sure to not let the specimen dry out. Gently wash three times for 10 minutes.
4. Alternatively, cells can be fixed with -20C methanol for 10 min at room temperature. Remove the methanol and rehydrate in PBS for 10 min before proceeding.
5. To block nonspecific antibody binding incubate in 10% normal goat serum for 1 hour at room temperature.
6. Add primary antibody at appropriate dilution and incubate at room temperature for 1 hour or at 4 degrees C overnight.
7. Remove primary antibody and replace with wash buffer. Gently wash three times for 10 minutes.
8. Add secondary antibody at the appropriate dilution. Incubate for 1 hour at room temperature.
9. Remove antibody and replace with wash buffer. Gently wash three times for 10 minutes.
10. Nuclei can be staining with 4',6' diamino phenylindole (DAPI) at 0.1 ug/ml, or coverslips can be directly mounted in media containing DAPI.
11. Cells can now be viewed with a fluorescence microscope.

*The above information is only intended as a guide. The researcher should determine what protocol best meets their needs. Please follow proper laboratory procedures for the disposal of formalin.


Western Blot Protocol
1. Perform SDS-PAGE on samples to be analyzed, loading 30 ug of total protein per lane.
2. Transfer proteins to membrane according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the membrane and transfer apparatus.
3. Stain according to standard Ponceau S procedure (or similar product) to assess transfer success, and mark molecular weight standards where appropriate.
4. Rinse the blot.
5. Block the membrane using standard blocking buffer for at least 1 hour.
6. Wash the membrane in wash buffer three times for 10 minutes each.
7. Dilute anti-SR-BI rabbit primary antibody in blocking buffer and incubate 1 hour at room temperature.
8. Wash the membrane in wash buffer three times for 10 minutes each.
9. Apply the diluted HRP conjugated secondary antibody in blocking buffer (as per manufacturers instructions) and incubate 1 hour at room temperature.
10. Wash the blot in wash buffer three times for 10 minutes each (this step can be repeated as required to reduce background).
11. Apply the detection reagent of choice in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
Note: Tween-20 can be added to the blocking or antibody dilution buffer at a final concentration of 0.05-0.2%.

FAQs for SR-BI Antibody - BSA Free

Showing  1 - 5 of 5 FAQs Showing All

  • Q: Could you please give me information about the molecular weight of SR-BI-antibody (NB400-113)?

    A: Encoded by gene SCARB1, SR-BI is a plasma membrane receptor for high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) and its expected molecular weight is 61kD. However, this protein undergoes post-translational modifications including N-glycosylation which causes a significant increase in the molecular mass from 61kD to up to approximately 82kD.

  • Q: Do you have information on epitope of NB400-113?

    A: NB400-113 is not epitope mapped and was generating by using an immunogen of full-length mouse SR-BI expressed by adenovirus

  • Q: Is this Ab identical to the former Ab3811 - Ab 3811 was used by Liisanantti et al. (Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research 2009) is the Ab3811 still available?

    A: Yes, Ab3811 from Abcam and the antibody NB400-113 from Novus are one and the same. The Abcam catalog number is our antibody that they are distributing. NB400-113 should perform as indicated in the literature under Ab3811.

  • Q: Please provide an estimated concentration for NB400-113 Lot G7?

    A: As mentioned on the datasheet, this product is an unpurified formulation (whole antiserum) and the exact concentration of antibody is not quantifiable.
    However, the concentration of antibody in antisera can vary from 1-10 mg/ml.

  • Q: We are interested in using this antibody to perform staining on cells and to detect cells with FACS (flow cytometry). It is indicated on the datasheet that it is possible to use this antibody for flow cytometry, however little information is provided. Could you please inform us on the isotype of the antibody and the concentration we need to use for our FACS experiments?

    A: This antibody is a rabbit polyclonal, so the isotype is IgG. We have never tested in-house for flow cytometry. This antibody has been validated for use in Flow Cytometry by other researchers in publications. All the information we have regarding its use in flow cytometry comes from the publications on the datasheet (PMID: 20041149 and 22622498). We recommend 1:50-1:200 for ICC, so this is probably a good range to start your testing with.
