- Background
- NTRK3 (Neurotrophic Tyrosine Kinase Receptor Type 3), also known as TRKC, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NTRK3 gene. By PCR analysis of a somatic cell hybrid panel and by fluorescence in situ hybridization with the cDNA clone, McGregor et al. (1994) mapped the NTRK3 gene to 15q24-q25. Lamballe et al. (1991) isolated and characterized TRKC, a member of the TRK family of tyrosine protein kinase genes. They found that TRKC is preferentially expressed in the brain; in situ hybridization studies showed transcripts in the hippocampus, cerebral cortex, and the granular cell layer of the cerebellum. By functional studies in HeLa cells, Muinos-Gimeno et al. (2009) demonstrated that 5 miRNAs regulate the truncated form of NTRK3.

- Function
- Receptor for neurotrophin-3 (NT-3). This is a tyrosine- protein kinase receptor. Known substrates for the trk receptors are SHC1, PI-3 kinase, and PLCG1. The different isoforms do not have identical signaling properties.
