Molecular Characterization: NTRK1(Ala33-Phe410) hFc(Glu99-Ala330)Molecular weight: The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 67.4 kDa after removal of the signal peptide.The apparent molecular mass of NTRK1-hFc is approximately 70-130 kDa due to glycosylation.Description: Recombinant Human NTRK1 Protein with C-terminal human Fc tagThis gene encodes a member of the neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor (NTKR) family. This kinase is a membrane-bound receptor that, upon neurotrophin binding, phosphorylates itself and members of the MAPK pathway. The presence of this kinase leads to cell differentiation and may play a role in specifying sensory neuron subtypes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital insensitivity to pain, anhidrosis, self-mutilating behavior, cognitive disability and cancer. Alternate transcriptional splice variants of this gene have been found, but only three have been characterized to date.
