Detects and quantifies the level of FAK (Focal Adhesion Kinase) phosphorylated at Tyr397. FAK is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase that has been implicated in several cell processes including the regulation of cell motility, cell morphology and cell adhesion.

| Data | |||
|---|---|---|---|
  The sensitivity of this ELISA was compared to immunoblotting using known quantities of FAK (pTyr<sup>397</sup>). The data show that the sensitivity of the ELISA is approximately 4x greater than that of immunoblotting. The bands shown in the immunoblot data were developed using anti-FAK (pTyr<sup>397</sup>) and chemiluminescent detection.  Samples were assayed 48 times times in multiple assays to determine precision between assays.  The specificity of this assay for phosphorylated FAK (Tyr<sup>397</sup>) was confirmed by peptide competition. The data show that only the phospho-peptide containing the phosphorylated (Tyr<sup>397</sup>) could block the ELISA signal. The nonphosphorylated peptide sequence or other phosphopeptides from the FAK sequence did not block the signal. |
