Key Points
Mature neurotrophins bind preferentially to Trk receptor tyrosine kinases. By contrast, proneurotrophins (neurotrophin precursors) bind with high affinity to the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75
NTR
).
Interaction of mature neurotrophins with Trk receptors leads to cell survival, whereas binding of pro-nerve growth factor (proN...
