Binding of PTN is believed to induce ALK receptor dimerization, similar to other receptor tyrosine kinases (reviewed in Roskoski, 2013; Della Corte et al, 2018). Consistent with this, studies in rat with enforced dimerization of ALK lead to receptor activation, downstream signaling and neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells (Gouzi et al, 2005).
