Targeting the hydrophobic pockets of FAK/PYK2 FAT domain: a highly effective inhibitory strategy suppressing tumor growth and eliminating metastasis
Abstract Background FAK is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase and an adaptor protein commonly overexpressed in cancer. It regulates multiple tumorigenic pathways through both kinase-dependent and kinase-independent scaffolding functions and thus represents a promising therapeutic target for various canc...
