Function
- required for high-affinity binding to nerve growth factor (NGF), neurotrophin-3 & neurotrophin-4/5 but not brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)
- with p75NGFR forms high affinity NGF receptor
- tyrosine kinase activity
- substrates for the Trk receptors include: SHC1, PI 3-kinase, & PLC-gamma-1
- role in the development & function of the nociceptive reception system & establishment of thermal regulation via sweating
- activates ERK1 by either SHC1- or PLC-gamma-1-dependent signaling pathway
- exists in a dynamic equilibrium between monomeric (low affinity) & dimeric (high affinity) structures
- binds SH2B2
- interacts with SQSTM1 which bridges NTRK1 to NGFR
- interacts with ARMS & NGFR
- can form a ternary complex with NGFR & ARMS; complex is affected by the expression of ARMS; an increase in ARMS expression leads to a decreased association of NGFR & NTRK1 (putative)
- ligand-mediated auto-phosphorylation
- interaction with SQSTM1 is phosphotyrosine-dependent
- trk-A is transported via fast axonal transport in the same compartment with the amyloid precursor protein APP
Structure
- transmembrane domain mediates interaction with ARMS
- extracellular domain mediates interaction with NGFR
- belongs to the protein kinase superfamily, Tyr protein kinase family, insulin receptor subfamily
- contains 2 Ig-like C2-type domaind (immunoglobulin-like)
- contains 3 LRR repeats (leucine-rich repeats)
- contains 1 protein kinase domain
Compartment
- cell membrane
- endocytosis upon treatment of cells with NGF (putative)
Alternative splicing
named isoforms=2
Expression
Pathology
- defects in NTRK1 are a cause of congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis
- chromosomal aberrations involving NTRK1 are a cause of thyroid papillary carcinoma (PACT) [MIM:188550]
- t(1;3)(q21;q11) involving NTRK1 with TFG generates the TRKT3 (TRK-T3) transcript by fusing TFG to the 3'-end of NTRK1
- rearrangement with TPM3 generates the TRK transcript by fusing TPM3 to the 3'-end of NTRK1
- intrachromosomal rearrangement that links the protein kinase domain of NTRK1 to the 5'-end of the TPR gene forms the fusion protein TRK-T1 (55 kD, reacts with antibodies against the C-terminus of NTRK1)
More general terms
- tropomyosin receptor kinase (trk) proto-oncogene protein (NTRK)
- leucine-rich repeat-containing protein (LRRC)
- glycoprotein
- phosphoprotein
