Extra Details:
MaxLight™550 is a new Yellow-Green photostable dye conjugate comparable to Alexa Fluor™546, 555, DyLight™549 , Cy3™, TRITC and offers better labeling efficiency, brighter imaging and increased immunodetection. Absorbance (550nm); Emission (575nm); Extinction Coefficient 150,000. Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a non receptor protein tyrosine kinase discovered as a substrate for Src and a key element in integrin signaling. FAK plays a central role in cell spreading, differentiation, migration, cell death and acceleration of the G1 to S phase transition of the cell cycle. FAK regulation includes phosphorylation at multiple tyrosine and serine residues. Phosphorylation of tyrosine is generally associated with positive regulation and growth promotion; however, dephosphorylation at these sites occurs as cells enter mitosis (M-Phase). In contrast, serine phosphorylation either remains high or is increased as cells enter mitosis and may play a role in focal adhesion disassembly. FAK and its phosphorylation states have been implicated in cancer metastasis, tumor cell survival, and adhesion-independent growth. Recent evidence indicates that elevation of FAK activity in human carcinoma cells is associated with increased invasive potential. A central role in tumor formation and progression suggests that FAK is an attractive target for therapeutic intervention. Activation of FAK by integrin clustering leads to autophosphorylation at Tyr397. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Cell Function Assay. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Positive Control: Untransfected and Src-transfected RAT2 cell lysates Storage and Stability: Store product at 4°C in the dark. DO NOT FREEZE! Stable at 4°C for 12 months after receipt as an undiluted liquid. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: MaxLight™550 conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap. Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
