Abstract excerpt
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is tyrosine-phosphorylated by adherence of cells and also by FcepsilonRI aggregation in RBL-2H3 mast cells. Using phosphorylation site-specific antibodies, we observed that FcepsilonRI activation in these cells led to an increase in FAK phosphorylation at the same tyrosine residues that are phosphorylated by integrin-induced activation. Previous studies in the 3B6 line, a FAK-deficient...
