CD36/SR-B3: cDNA Clones

CD36, also known as scavenger receptor class B member 3 (SR-B3), platelet membrane glycoprotein IV (GPIV), GPIIIb, thrombospondin receptor, collagen receptor, and fatty acid translocase (FAT), is a broadly-expressed integral membrane glycoprotein that has multiple physiological functions. As a member of the scavenger receptor family, CD36 is a multi-ligand pattern recognition receptor that interacts with a large number of structurally dissimilar ligands. Upon ligand binding, CD36 transduces signals that mediate a wide range of pro-inflammatory cellular responses.
