    text
  • nuclear localization of the intracellular domain of NTRK1 is observed constitutively in liver cells such as hepatocytes and activated stellate cells, while in other cell types it could be induced in response to soluble factors
  • NGFR and NTRK1 are localized in the mitochondrial compartment of undifferentiated human podocytes and in all tissues analyzed including central nervous system
  • basic FUNCTION
  • nerve growth factor receptor, high affinity (dimeric form)
  • involved in the survival differentiation and maintenance of many neural and non neural cell types
  • by attracting microtubules to lipid rafts, may mediate other processes such as axon guidance
  • positive feedback regulation between LHX8, NTRK1, and NGF is likely an important regulatory mechanism for cholinergic functions of the septum

    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling signal transduction
  • RUSC1 participates in the NGF-NTRK1 signaling pathway
  • a component
    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • binding nerve growth factor (NGFA, NGFB, NGFC), its high affinity
  • binding neurotrophins (NTF3, NTF4)
  • associates with TID1
  • interaction with KALRN by the pleckstrin homology domain
  • NGF is a cognate ligand for the neurotrophic receptor NTRK1, promoting the interaction between CTBP2 and ACIN1 through triggering ACIN1 phosphorylation by AKT1
  • APP is phosphorylated by NTRK1 and regulates NGF/NTRK1signaling
  • NTRK1 and NGFR collaborate with each other at the plasma membrane to bind NGF
  • RASGRF1 binds nerve growth factor (NGF)-activated NTRK1
  • RUSC1 RUN domain can directly interact with NTRK1
  • NGFR and NTRK1 interact to enhance neurotrophic signaling
  • STX8 facilitates NTRK1 transport from the Golgi to the plasma membrane and regulates the surface levels of NTRK1 but not NTRK2 receptors
  • LINGO1 functions as a negative feedback regulator of signaling by cognate receptor tyrosine kinases including NTRK1, NTRK2 and NTRK3
