For maximum recovery please spin prior to use. Unless noted below, aliquots of the 5 µg, 10 µg and 20 µg sizes of kinase are not recommended as materials can be used in original packaging until exhausted. For larger sizes, the number of freeze/thaws may be reduced by preparing aliquots, aliquots below 20 µL are not recommended. Please never store a kinase diluted. If properly stored at -80C, this product is guaranteed for 6 months from date of purchase.
Protein Form: Full Length
PTK2B (FAK2) is a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase involved in calcium-induced regulation of ion channels and activation of the map kinase signaling pathway. PTK2B regulates reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, cell polarization, cell migration, adhesion, spreading, and bone remodeling. FAK2 plays a role in the regulation of the humoral immune response and is required for normal levels of marginal B-cells in the spleen and normal migration of splenic B-cells. It functions in signaling downstream of integrin and collagen receptors, immune receptors, G-protein coupled receptors, cytokine, chemokine, and growth factor receptors, and mediates responses to cellular stress. Aberrant FAK2 expression may play a role in cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in tumor formation and metastasis. Elevated expression has been seen in gliomas, hepatocellular carcinoma, lung cancer, and breast cancer.
