Target/Specificity | Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a widely expressed cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase involved in signal transduction pathways important for cell spreading, migration and survival. Activation of FAK by integrin clustering leads to autophosphorylation at Tyr-397, which is a binding site for Src family kinases, PI3-Kinase, and PLCγ. The recruitment of Src family kinases results in the phosphorylation of tyrosine 407, 576, and 577 in the catalytic domain, and tyrosine 871 and 925 in the carboxy-terminal region of FAK. Thus, the phosphorylation of Tyr-397 is a critical step in the activation of FAK. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | Anti-FAK (Tyr-397), Phosphospecific Antibody is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
