| Analysis Note: | Inhibits BDNF-induced proliferation of TrkB transfected cells, BaF-TrkB-BD. |
| Application: | TrkB/Fc Chimera human can be used in synaptoneurosome preparation and western blot analysis. Intracerebroventricular administeration of TrkB/Fc chimera human blocks TrkB ligand signaling and was used to study the role of BDNF in ATN response augmentation. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Member of the Trk family tyrosine kinase receptors. Binds specifically to mediate neurotrophins BDNF and NT-4/5. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | TrkB/Fc Chimera human consist of extracellular domain of human TrkB1 fused to histidine-tagged Fc region of human IgG1 by using a polypeptide linker. TrkB belongs to tyrosine kinase receptors family and facilitates the hippocampal development as well as regulating the synaptic plasticity that underlies long-term potentiation and learning. Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and Neurotrophin 4 or 5 are preferred ligands for TrkB. Nevertheless it can also bind to NTF3/neurotrophin-3 that is less efficient in activating the receptor but regulates neuron survival through NTRK2. |
| Other Notes: | Extracellular domain of human TrkB fused to the C-terminal histidine-tagged Fc region of human IgG1. |
| Physical form: | Lyophilized from 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline. |
