General description

PYK2 (proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2, also known as FAK2/RAFTK) belongs to the focal adhesion PTK (protein tyrosine kinase) family. It is activated by signals that increases intracellular calcium concentration and also by stress signals. PYK2 is present in the endothelium, central nervous system, and hematopoietic lineages.

Biochem/physiol Actions

In osteoclasts, PYK2 (proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2) might be a crucial mediator of integrin αvβ3 signaling events that affects osteoclast physiology as well as pathology. It has a tumor-promoting role in multiple myeloma.

Physical form

Supplied in 50mM NaPhosphate pH 7.0, 300 mM NaCl, 150 mM imidazole, 0.1mM PMSF, 0.2 mM DTT, 25% glycerol.

Integrin alpha(v)beta3 plays a pivotal role in osteoclastic bone resoprtion by mediating both osteoclast attachments on bone matrix and cytoskeleton reorganization. The focal adhesion kinase (FAK) family kinases including FAK and proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (PYK2) are major tyrosine kinases
