Application Note
WB: Use at a concentration of 0.1 - 0.5 μg/ml. Predicted molecular weight: 125 kDa. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
Calculated MW
Positive Control
Chicken embryo fibroblasts expressing Focal Adhesion Kinase protein and plated on fibronectin
Product Note
Some cross-reactivity with PYK 2 may still be experienced in cases where PYK 2 is overexpressed relative to Focal Adhesion Kinase within the same cell system.
Form
Liquid
Buffer
PBS pH7.3, 1mg/ml BSA (IgG, Protease free)
Preservative
0.05% Sodium azide
Storage
Store as concentrated solution. Centrifuge briefly prior to opening vial. For short-term storage (1-2 weeks), store at 4ºC. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20ºC or below. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Concentration
0.5 mg/ml (Please refer to the vial label for the specific concentration.)
Antigen Species
Human
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide (Human) derived from the region of human Focal Adhesion Kinase that contains tyrosine 576. The sequence is conserved in mouse, rat, chicken and frog.
Purification
Immunogen affinity purified
Purified from rabbit serum by sequential epitope-specific chromatography. The antibody has been negatively preadsorbed using (i) a non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the site of phosphorylation to remove antibody that is reactive with non-phosphorylated
Conjugation
Unconjugated

Background
This gene encodes a cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase which is found concentrated in the focal adhesions that form between cells growing in the presence of extracellular matrix constituents. The encoded protein is a member of the FAK subfamily of protein tyrosine kinases but lacks significant sequence similarity to kinases from other subfamilies. Activation of this gene may be an important early step in cell growth and intracellular signal transduction pathways triggered in response to certain neural peptides or to cell interactions with the extracellular matrix. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2017]
