8.A.23.1.38
BDNF/NT-3 growth factors receptor, ofNKRK2 or TrkB, of 822 aas and 1 N-terminal TMS. It is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the development and the maturation of the central and the peripheral nervous systems through regulation of neuron survival, proliferation, migration, differentiation, and synapse formation and plasticity. It is a receptor for BDNF/brain-derived neurotrophic factor and NTF4/neurotrophin-4. Alternatively, it can bind NTF3/neurotrophin-3 which is less efficient in activating the receptor but regulates neuron survival through NTRK2 (Haniu et al. 1995, Yeo et al. 2004). Upon ligand-binding, it undergoes homodimerization, autophosphorylation and activation (Yeo et al. 2004).
