CST, 72040C, PathScan® Phospho-Axl (Tyr702) Sandwich ELISA Kit

ELISA Kit for studying Axl (Tyr702) phosphate in the research area. Protocol Available protocols: ELISA+ Specificity / Sensitivity The PathScan Species Reactivity: Human Background Axl, Sky, and Mer are three members of a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family that share a conserved intracellular tyrosine kinase domain and an extracellular domain similar to those seen in cell adhesion molecules. These RTKs bind the vitamin K-dependent protein growth-arrest-specific gene 6 (Gas6), which is structurally related to the protein S anticoagulation factor (1). Upon binding to its receptor, Gas6 activates phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and its downstream targets Akt and S6K, as well as NF-κB (2,3). A large body of evidence supports a role for Gas6/Axl signaling in cell growth and survival in normal and cancer cells (4). Phosphorylation of Axl receptor on Tyr702 was identified at Cell Signaling Technology (CST) using PTMScan , CST's LC-MS/MS platform for modified site discovery (5). Phosphorylation of Axl on Tyr702 was also reported in select carcinoma cell lines (6).
