Fak antibody

Manufactured by Cell Signaling Technology
Sourced in United States

The FAK antibody is a laboratory reagent used to detect and study the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) protein. FAK is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase that plays a crucial role in cellular signaling pathways involved in various cellular processes, such as cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. The FAK antibody can be used in techniques like Western blotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunohistochemistry to identify and quantify the expression of FAK in biological samples.

For microscopy of FAK, cryosections were immunofluorescently labeled with primary antibodies used for IHC which were FAK Antibody (1:200; Cell Signaling) [27 (link)]. Antibody incubations were carried out at 4 °C in a humidified chamber, overnight. Bound antibody was visualized using anti-rabbit (1:50; Cell Signaling, USA) secondary antibody conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate. Fluorescently labeled sections were treated with 95% ethanol and then mounted under coverslips with Vectashield mountant containing propidium iodide (Vector Laboratories) before viewing under the microscope. Control sections were processed as above with omission of the primary antibodies. Microscopy was performed using a Zeiss Primo Star microscope.

Total protein was obtained using RIPA buffer with cocktail inhibitors (Cell Signaling Tech, USA). Protein concentration was measured using a BCA kit (Pierce, USA). Equal amounts of protein were separated on a 15% gel and then transferred to 0.22 μm PVDF membranes (AmerSham, USA). The membranes were blocked in 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in Tris-buffered saline with Tween 20 buffer (TBST) for 2 h and then incubated overnight at 4 °C with the following primary antibodies: FAK-antibody (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech, USA) and anti-β-actin (1:1000, Cell Signaling Tech, USA). Then, the membranes were washed three times with TBST and incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (goat anti-rabbit IgG, 1/5000 or goat anti-mouse IgG, 1:5000, Cell Signaling Tech, USA) for 1 h at room temperature. Blots were developed using a chemiluminescence kit (Pierce, USA) and exposed to X-ray film. The bands on the film were scanned and analyzed with Quality One software (Bio-Rad). Primary antibodies and conditions used to probe blots were rabbit anti-FAK (1:1000; Cell Signaling, USA), mouse anti-β-actin (1:1000; Cell Signaling, USA). Appropriate HRP-conjugated secondary anti-rabbit or anti-mouse antibodies were used (Cell Signaling, USA). The FAK protein expression level was normalized to β-actin expression on the same nitrocellulose membrane.

Western blotting was used to assess FAK expression and phosphorylation. Methods followed our published protocols [17 (link),18 (link)]. Cells were cultured for 24 h on test surfaces, washed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS), and harvested with 0.25% trypsin/ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. The cells were centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 5 min, and then lysed with protein lysis buffer. Equal amounts of lysates underwent sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the proteins were transferred onto the nitrocellulose membrane. The membrane was blocked with 5% non-fat dry milk for 1 h, and then incubated at 4°C overnight with FAK antibody (Cell Signaling, 3285S) and phosphorylated FAK (pY397) antibody (BD Biosciences, 611806). The membrane was washed and then incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody (Jackson Lab). Immuno-positive bands were detected by enhanced chemiluminescence. The band strength was quantified by ImageJ and normalized with the loading control, GAPDH. Tests were repeated three times.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
