Neurotrophin-4 is a novel member of the nerve growth factor family of neurotrophins recently
isolated from Xenopus and viper DNA. We now report that the Xenopus NT-4 protein(XNT4) …

Summary trkB is a tyrosine protein kinase gene highly related to trk, a proto-oncogene that
encodes a receptor for nerve growth factor (NGF) and neurotrophin-3(NT-3). t&B expression …

Members of the Trk tyrosine kinase family have recently been identified as functional
receptors of the NGF family of neurotrophins. Here we show the rat trkC locus to be complex …

Nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) are the
three members of the neurotrophin family known to exist in mammals. Recently, a fourth …

We have exploited a battery of approaches to address several controversies that have
accompanied the expansion of the nerve growth factor (NCF) family of neurotrophic factors …

Revised Manuscript Received May 23, 1995® abstract: TrkB is a member of the Trk family of
neurotrophin receptors. Its extracellular domain exhibits the same modular structure found in …

In vertebrates, the formation and maintenance of neuronal connections are subject to
regulation by multiple target-derived, diffusible (neurotrophic) factors. Here we describe the …

Several new members of the nerve growth factor family of neurotrophins, which comprises
nerve growth factor itself, brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophins-3,-4 (also …

Neurotrophins regulate differentiation and survival of vertebrate neurons through binding to
members of the Trk family of receptor tyrosine kinases and to a common low affinity receptor …

A variety of findings seem to functionally link brainderived neurotrophic factor (BDNF))'and
neurotrophin3 (NT-3), while distinguishing both of these factors from the third member of the …
