Product Name :
FAK (Phospho-Y397) polyclonal antibody Background :
Activation of integrins in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of eukaryotic cells promotes the formation of membrane adhesion complexes, known as focal adhesions, which can include cytoskeletal proteins and protein tyrosine kinases, such as focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Phosphorylation events occurring within focal adhesions influence numerous processes that include mitogenic signaling, cell survival, and cell motility. FAK is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase that is ubiquitously expressed and highly conserved between species. FAK is recruited by Integrin clusters and variably phosphorylated depending on the effector molecules present in the focal adhesion. Phosphorylation of FAK Tyr 397 decreases during serum starvation, contact inhibition, and cell cycle arrest, all conditions under which activating FAK Tyr 407 phosphorylation increases. Product :
Rabbit IgG, 1mg/ml in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide, 50% glycerol, pH7.2 Storage&Stability :

FAK (Phospho-Y397) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of FAK protein only when phosphorylated at Y397. Immunogen :
Synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Tyr397 of human FAK. Conjugate :
Unconjugated Modification :
Phosphorylation

Describe :

Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.
