Summary:FAK is linked to a type of cancer called skin carcinomas.Mice were used to disable the function of FAK in the mammmary glands. The mice being the enzymes, stopped a tumor from growing and harming.

Questions:
What reactions does this enzyme catalyze? the growth of tumors
How is the cell affected if this enzyme is removed?the tumor growth is ceased
List three things you learned from this article in your own words.
1) I learned that FAK is linked to skin carcinomas
2) Mice can lose thier life during these experiments that try to save humans
3)Mice can stop tumor growths
What impact would the absence of this molecule have on the cell? If this molecule was absent then the tumor would continue to grow.
