Immunogen affinity purified
Purified from rabbit serum by sequential epitope-specific chromatography. The antibody has been negatively preadsorbed using a non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the site of phosphorylation to remove antibody that is reactive with non-phosphorylated Focal Adhesion Kinase. The final product is generated by affinity chromatography using a Focal Adhesion Kinase-derived peptide that is phosphorylated at tyrosine 397.
Focal Adhesion Kinase is a 125 kDa non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase that was discovered as a substrate for Src, and is a key element of integrin signaling. Focal Adhesion Kinase plays a central role in cell spreading, differentiation, migration, cell death and acceleration of the G1 to S phase transition of the cell cycle. Tyrosine 397 is the autophosphorylation site of Focal Adhesion Kinase. The site binds Src family SH2 domains and the p85 subunit of PI3-Kinase.

Non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinase implicated in signaling pathways involved in cell motility, proliferation and apoptosis. Activated by tyrosine-phosphorylation in response to either integrin clustering induced by cell adhesion or antibody cross-linking, or via G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) occupancy by ligands such as bombesin or lysophosphatidic acid, or via LDL receptor occupancy. Microtubule-induced dephosphorylation at Tyr-397 is crucial for the induction of focal adhesion disassembly. Plays a potential role in oncogenic transformations resulting in increased kinase activity.
Expressed in all organs tested, in lymphoid cell lines, but most abundantly in brain.
Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. FAK subfamily.
Contains 1 FERM domain.
Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
The first Pro-rich domain interacts with the SH3 domain of CRK-associated substrate (BCAR1) and CASL.
The carboxy-terminal region is the site of focal adhesion targeting (FAT) sequence which mediates the localization of FAK1 to focal adhesions.
Phosphorylated on 6 tyrosine residues upon activation. Microtubule-induced dephosphorylation at Tyr-397 could be catalyzed by PTPN11 and regulated by ZFYVE21. Dephosphorylated by PTPN11 upon EPHA2 activation by its ligand EFNA1.
Cell junction > focal adhesion. Cell membrane. Constituent of focal adhesions.

Western blot - FAK (phospho Y397) antibody (ab4803)

Predicted band size : 125 kDa
Peptide Competition: Extracts prepared from chick embryo fibroblasts expressing FAK and plated on fibronectin were resolved by SDS-PAGE on a 10% polyacrylamide gel and transferred to nitrocellulose. Membranes were blocked with a 5% BSA-TBST buffer overnight at 4oC, then were incubated with 0.35 µg/mL ab4803 antibody for two hours at room temperature in a 3% BSA-TBST buffer, following prior incubation with: no peptide (1), the non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the immunogen (2), a generic phospho-tyrosine containing peptide (3), a phosphopeptide derived from the corresponding region of Pyk2 (4), or, the phosphopeptide immunogen (5). After washing, membranes were incubated with goat F(ab’)2 anti-rabbit IgG alkaline phosphatase and bands were detected using the Tropix WesternStar method. The data show that only the peptide corresponding to ab4803 blocks the antibody signal, thereby demonstrating the specificity of the antibody.
