NTF4-bound Ntrk2 dimers trans-autophosphorylate
A recombinant human NTF4 (NT-4) induces trans-autophosphorylation of mouse Ntrk2 (TrkB) tyrosine residue Y515 (mouse Y515 corresponds to Y516 of human NTRK2). As the electrophoretic migration pattern of Ntrk2 phosphorylated in response to NTF4 is indistinguishable from the electrophoretic migration pattern of Ntrk2 phosphorylated in response to BDNF, and identical downstream effectors are activated, it is assumed that NTF4 induces phosphorylation of Ntrk2 on five evolutionarily conserved tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic tail of Ntrk2: Y515, Y701, Y705, Y706 and Y816 (corresond to human NTRK2 residues Y516, Y702, Y706, Y707 and Y817) (Minichiello et al. 1998).
