The activation of phosphorylation of FAK is reported to be related to developmental processes in brain tissue (PMID : 14642275). So expression level of phosphorylated modified FAK in normal brain is quite low causing not easy to be detected. We suggest optimizing experimental protocols (increasing lysate amount, using lower dilution or higher-sensitivity ECL substrate) to improve results.
FAK can be cleaved at several sites. The molecular weight observed is consistent with what has been described in the literature (PMID : 10545505, PMID : 9642276).
This blot of Lane 2 and 4 was developed using a high-sensitivity ECL substrate, allowing for the detection of proteins in the mid-femtogram range.

Biological function summary
Focal Adhesion Kinase participates in the formation of focal adhesions which are complexes that connect the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. The FAK protein functions as an important signaling node in these structures allowing for the assembly of multiprotein signal transduction complexes. FAK also controls cellular processes such as spreading motility and survival. The interaction with proteins such as Src kinases paxillin and talin facilitates its biological roles in cell signaling.
Pathways
Focal Adhesion Kinase engages in the regulation of the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway and the PI3K/AKT pathway. These pathways are instrumental for cell proliferation survival and migration. In these pathways FAK interacts with proteins such as PI3K Grb2 and Sos linking integrin-mediated signals with downstream effects that influence cell behavior and survival.
