Abstract

The neurotrophins, nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and neurotrophin-3 and -4, are a family of highly homologous proteins regulating neuronal survival and differentiation during the development of the vertebrate nervous system. They act through binding two types of receptors, a family of tyrosine kinase receptors, referred to as the Trks, and a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, p75NTR. This article discusses the mechanisms by which the receptors mediate the responses to neurotrophin or proneurotrophin binding.
