Research studies have shown that activation of the MAPK\/ERK pathway leads to downstream activation of PFAS. Specifically, it was shown that PFAS is a substrate of ERK2, which phosphorylates PFAS at Thr619; activation of PFAS results in the generation of purine intermediates required for cell and tumor growth (2). It has also been reported that both PFAS and viral PFAS-like proteins can activate RIG-I pattern recognition receptors, implicating PFAS-mediated deamidation in the innate immune response to viral infection (3).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nFGAM synthase; FGAMS; FGAR amidotransferase; FGAR-AT; FGARAT; Formylglycinamide ribonucleotide amidotransferase; Formylglycinamide ribotide amidotransferase; Formylglycinamide ribotide synthetase; GATD8; IKZF1\/PFAS fusion; KIAA0361; PFAS; Phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthase; PUR4; PURL\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 145\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799898935465,"sku":"76957T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-76957t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
