Detection of Human PYK2/FAK2 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of human brain tissue, Daudi human Burkitt lymphoma, and A549 human lung carcinoma cells. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Human PYK2/FAK2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4589) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for PYK2/FAK2 at approximately 116 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

PYK2/FAK2 in Human Brain. PYK2/FAK2 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human brain using Sheep Anti-Human PYK2/FAK2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4589) at 10 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # CTS013). Tissue was stained using the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to neuronal cell bodies. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections.

Detection of PYK2/FAK2 by Western Blot Galectin-3 expression induces activation of PYK2, STAT1 and GSK3 alpha / beta signalling. Expression of 37 protein kinases in SW620 cells in response to 10 µg/ml galectin-3 or BSA for 0.5 h was assessed by Proteome Profiler Human Phospho-Kinase Array (A, Percentage changes of the kinases in cell response to galectin-3 in comparison to control are shown at the bottom panel). The presence of galectin-3 increases the phosphorylation of PYK2, GSK3 alpha / beta, and STAT1 and decreases phosphorylation of STAT3. SW620 cells treated with 10 µg/ml galectin-3 for different times were assessed by immunoblotting using antibodies against p-PYK2, p-STAT-1, p-GSK3 alpha / beta or p-STAT-3 (B). The blots were striped and reprobed with antibodies against PYK2, STAT-1, GSK3 alpha / beta or STAT-3. The band density was quantified and expressed as percentages of phospho-/non-phosphorylated proteins (C). In D and E, SW620 cells were treated with 10 µg/ml galectin-3 or BSA followed by introduction of GSK3 alpha / beta inhibitor SB 216763 (SB) or PKY2 inhibitor PF-431396 (PF) for 15 min and the levels of phosphorylated PYK2, STAT-1, GSK3 alpha / beta or STAT-3 were analysed by immunoblotting. The blots were striped and reprobed with antibodies against PYK2, STAT-1, GSK3 alpha / beta or STAT-3. The densities of the blots from three independent experiments were quantified and are expressed as the percentage of phosphorylated/non-phosphorylated levels of each protein. ***P < 0.001, **P < 0.01, *P < 0.05 (ANOVA).

Background: PYK2/FAK2
PYK2 (Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2; also FAK2, RAFTK and CAK beta ) is a 112‑116 kDa member of the FAK subfamily, tyrosine protein kinase family. It is expressed in multiple cell types, including endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, megakaryocytes and neurons. PYK2 is activated by elevated intracellular Ca++ and is associated with MAPK pathway activation. Human PYK2 is 1009 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one FERM domain that binds to growth factor receptors (aa 39‑359), a protein kinase domain (aa 425‑683), two Pro‑rich segments that bind SH domains (aa 702‑767 and 831‑869), and one FAT region that interacts with integrins (aa 868‑1009). Phosphorylation of PYK2 at Tyr402/579/580 is associated with changes in activity. There is one splice variant that shows a deletion of aa 739‑780.
