We have systematically measured KD (the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antibody and its antigen), of more than 840 recombinant antibodies to assess not only their individual KD values but also to see the average affinity of antibody. Based on the comparison with published literature values for mouse monoclonal antibodies, Recombinant antibodies appear to be on average 1-2 order of magnitude higher affinity.

Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

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.

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.
