So expression level of phosphorylated modified FAK in normal brain is quite low causing not easy to be detected. We suggest optimizing experimental protocols (increasing lysate amount, using lower dilution or higher sensitivity ECL substrate) to improve results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProduct details:\u003cbr\u003e\nWhat is this antibody validated in?\u003cbr\u003e\nAnti-FAK (phospho Y397) antibody [EP2160Y] (ab81298) is a rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody and is validated for use in Western Blot (WB), Immunocytochemistry\/immunofluorescence (ICC\/IF) in Human, Mouse, Rat samples.\u003cbr\u003e\nWhat is the molecular weight of FAK?\u003cbr\u003e\nAnti-FAK (phospho Y397) [EP2160Y] (ab81298) specifically detects a band for FAK (UniProt: Q05397) at a molecular weight of 119kDa.\u003cbr\u003e\nTrusted by the scientific community\u003cbr\u003e\nAnti-FAK (phospho Y397) [EP2160Y] (ab81298) was first used in a scientific publication in 2009 and has been cited over 130 times in peer-reviewed journals.\u003cbr\u003e\nTrial sizes available!\u003cbr\u003e\nTest your antibody or perform pre-screening before committing to a larger quantity.

This protein has a molecular weight of approximately 125 kDa. FAK is expressed at high levels in brain muscle and liver tissues. Mechanically FAK plays a role in cellular adhesion and migration by regulating integrin signaling and cell-extracellular matrix interactions. FAK auto-phosphorylates at tyrosine residue 397 creating a binding site for Src family kinases and promoting downstream signaling pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nFocal Adhesion Kinase participates in the formation of focal adhesions which are complexes that connect the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. The FAK protein functions as an important signaling node in these structures allowing for the assembly of multiprotein signal transduction complexes. FAK also controls cellular processes such as spreading motility and survival. The interaction with proteins such as Src kinases paxillin and talin facilitates its biological roles in cell signaling.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nFocal Adhesion Kinase engages in the regulation of the MAPK\/ERK signaling pathway and the PI3K\/AKT pathway. These pathways are instrumental for cell proliferation survival and migration. In these pathways FAK interacts with proteins such as PI3K Grb2 and Sos linking integrin-mediated signals with downstream effects that influence cell behavior and survival.\u003cbr\u003e\nAltered FAK signaling has ties to cancer progression and metastasis as well as cardiovascular diseases. In cancer the overexpression of FAK and its interaction with proteins like Src and VEGFR can drive tumor growth and angiogenesis. In cardiovascular diseases improper FAK activation can lead to aberrant heart tissue remodeling and associated pathologies. Abnormalities in FAK signaling pathways can therefore contribute significantly to the development and progression of these diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46844083372201,"sku":"ab81298","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab81298","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
