CatalogCode: NB120-4807
ProductName: PYK 2 Antibody
Product Description: Rabbit Polyclonal anti-PYK 2 [Tyr579/Tyr580]
Clonality: Polyclonal
Immunogen: Synthetic peptide (Human) derived from the region of human Pyk 2 that contains tyrosines 579 and 580. The sequence is conserved in human and rat.
Specificity: Some cross-reactivity still may be experienced in cases where Focal Adhesion Kinase is overexpressed relative to PYK 2 within the same cell system.
CrossReactivity: Cross-reacts with Human, Chicken and Rat.Not yet tested in other species.
Packaging: 0.05 ml Immunogen affinity purified Rabbit IgG.
Uses: WB: Use at a concentration of 0.1 - 1.0 ug/ml. Predicted molecular weight: 116 kDa. Not tested in other applications.Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
Localization: Cytoplasmic
Control: Vandate treated CEF cells expressing PYK 2 and plated on fibronectin.
Background: Proline-rich/Ca2+ -activated tyrosine kinase (PYK 2, also known as RAFTK, CAK beta or Focal Adhesion Kinase 2) is a member of the Focal Adhesion Kinase family of non-receptor, proline-rich PTK's. PYK 2 signalling is initiated by a variety of extracellular stimuli including integrin ligation, CD surface marker ligation (e.g., CD3, CD28, TCR, VCAM), bioactive peptides, growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, and certain stress stimuli. PYK 2 is involved in the regulation of vesicular transport, osteoclastic bone resorption, modulation of ion channels, T- and B-cell receptor signaling and cell death. Phosphorylation of the catalytic domain tyrosines 579 and 580 results in maximum activation of PYK 2. Tyr579 and Tyr580 are phosphorylated by Src.
Storage: Store at −20oC. We recommend a brief centrifugation before opening to settle vial contents. Then, apportion into working aliquots and store at -20oC. For shipment and short-term storage (up to one week), 2-8oC is sufficient.
Purity: Immunogen affinity purified
