PP5 regulates the phosphorylation of FAK and ASK1 in wounded cells. Cell lysates from unwounded and wounded MLE-12 cells were collected after 24 hr, immunoprecipitated (IP) for FAK or ASK1, and then immunoblotted as indicated. Panel A Knockdown of PP5 using shRNA decreased p-Ser966-ASK1 in unwounded cells and showed no change in wounded cells. Panel B Knockdown of PP5 using shRNA caused a significant increase in p-Ser-FAK (recognized by the 1C8 antibody) in wounded cells. Right panels show the densitometry analysis normalized to unwounded controls. Asterisks (*) indicate a significant difference compared to control, (n = 4), p < 0.05. N.S. – no significant difference. Each set of bands shown was cropped from the same blot, and the full-length blots were provided in supplemental data. Each protein indicated was immunoblotted separately from independent gels.
