Background Information
FAK (Focal adhesion kinase 1) is also named as FAK1, FADK, pp125FAK, FAK and belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. It is a critical tyrosine kinase that modulates cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and survival in response to extracellular signals (PMID:19664602). It also acts as a pivotal signal 'integrator', controlling and coordinating cellular responses that include cell migration, survival, proliferation and, epithelial tissue repair after DNA damage (PMID:20966971). This protein has some isoforms produced by alternative promoter usage and alternative splicing, and the range of the molecular weights are 100-120kD and 40-60kD.

Reviews
What customers say
Both reviews are 5-star ratings for Western Blot applications. One user reported the antibody performed very well at 1:1000 dilution, producing a strong signal with short exposure time and detecting both human and mouse cell lysates with comparable intensities. The other user found it working great at 1:2000 dilution for both mouse colon tissue and colon epithelial cell lines. Overall, customers highlight strong signal, reliable cross-species detection, and consistent performance across tissue and cell line samples.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
