Rb448-150608-WS

A synthetic peptide from the extracellular domain of rat TrkA conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptide is homologous in mouse.

High affinity nerve growth factor receptor, NTRK1, p140-TrkA, Trk-A, Neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor type 1, Slow nerve growth factor receptor

FUNCTION: Required for high-affinity binding to nerve growth factor (NGF), neurotrophin-3 and neurotrophin-4/5 but not brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Known substrates for the Trk receptors are SHC1, PI 3-kinase, and PLC-gamma-1. Has a crucial role in the development and function of the nociceptive reception system as well as establishment of thermal regulation via sweating. Activates ERK1 by either SHC1- or PLC-gamma-1-dependent signaling pathway.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine = ADP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine phosphate.
SUBUNIT: Exists in a dynamic equilibrium between monomeric (low affinity) and dimeric (high affinity) structures. Binds SH2B2. Interacts with SQSTM1 which bridges NTRK1 to NGFR. Interacts with NGFR and ARMS. Can form a ternary complex with NGFR and ARMS and this complex is affected by the expression levels of ARMS. An increase in ARMS expression leads to a decreased association of NGFR and NTRK1.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note: Endocytosed to the endosomes upon treatment of cells with NGF.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Isoform Trka-II is primarily expressed in neuronal cells; isoform Trka-I is found in non-neuronal tissues.

Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.
