Characterization of an activated mutant of focal adhesion kinase: 'SuperFAK'.

The Biochemical journal - 1 Aug 2002

Gabarra-Niecko Veronica, Keely Patricia J, Schaller Michael D

Abstract excerpt

Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase that plays an important role in normal cellular processes such as adhesion, spreading, migration, proliferation and survival. In addition, FAK is overexpressed in a variety of cancer cells and tumours and may play a role in the development of human cancer. As a prelude to modelling the role of aberrant FAK signalling in the initiation of cancer, the...
