Role of STAT3 in in vitro transformation triggered by TRK oncogenes. [PDF]
TRK oncoproteins are chimeric versions of the NTRK1/NGF receptor and display constitutive tyrosine kinase activity leading to transformation of NIH3T3 cells and neuronal differentiation of PC12 cells.

Transphosphorylation of the Neurotrophin Trk Receptors [PDF]
The potential for the activation of one Trk receptor by ligand binding to another Trk receptor was explored by determining if transphosphorylation on tyrosine residues can occur between receptors. For most of these experiments, functional chimeric receptors were used that contained the extracellular domain of the human type 2 tumor necrosis factor ...

Drosophila Neurotrophins Reveal a Common Mechanism for Nervous System Formation [PDF]
Neurotrophic interactions occur in Drosophila, but to date, no neurotrophic factor had been found. Neurotrophins are the main vertebrate secreted signalling molecules that link nervous system structure and function: they regulate neuronal survival ...

The biophysical basis of receptor tyrosine kinase ligand functional selectivity: Trk-B case study.
Tropomyosin receptor kinase B (Trk-B) belongs to the second largest family of membrane receptors, Receptor Tyrosine Kinases (RTKs). Trk-B is known to interact with three different neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), Neurotrophin-4 ...
