Activity summary

The TRK fused gene also known as NTRK or tropomyosin receptor kinase encodes for a family of proteins integral to neurotrophin signaling. These proteins weighing approximately 80-90 kilodaltons include isoforms such as TRKA TRKB and TRKC which are products of the NTRK1 NTRK2 and NTRK3 genes respectively. They express mainly in neuronal tissues and certain non-neuronal cells. These proteins possess a diverse range of functions largely due to structural variations derived from gene fusions.

Biological function summary

Neurotrophin signaling pathways involve TRK proteins facilitating neuronal differentiation survival and plasticity. TRK proteins often form part of larger complexes engaged in transmitting signals from the extracellular environment to intracellular pathways. The TRK proteins interact with neurotrophins like NGF BDNF and NT-3 playing essential roles in nervous system function and development. The interaction between TRK receptors and their ligands activates downstream signaling cascades.

Pathways

TRK proteins significantly contribute to the MAPK/ERK and PI3K/Akt pathways. These pathways control cell growth differentiation and survival. Within these pathways TRK proteins interact with partners such as Ras and Akt coordinating a broad range of cellular processes. They ensure proper cellular responses to external stimuli and maintain homeostasis within the cell.

Associated diseases and disorders

TRK fusion proteins frequently associate with certain cancers including thyroid and lung cancer due to gene fusions leading to overactive signaling. Altered TRK signaling correlates with neurodegenerative diseases as well such as Alzheimer's disease. TRK fusions can affect proteins like ETV6 and LMNA in the context of cancer influencing tumorigenesis and disease progression. Understanding the connections between TRK fusions and these diseases aids the development of target-specific therapies.

    ab208865 staining TRK fused gene in MCF7 cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab208865 at a 1/100 dilution (shown in red) and Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker ab195887, Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 488), at a 1/250 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

    Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).
