FAK family kinases: The Yin and Yang of cancer cell invasiveness

Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (PYK2, also known as Pyk2) and its closely related focal adhesion kinase (FAK) modulate cancer cell invasion by coordinating the balance between focal adhesion-mediated migration and invadopodia-dependent extracellular matrix invasion. Our recent findings present Pyk2...
