Abstract excerpt
The nerve growth factor receptor TrkA (tropomyosin-related kinase receptor) participates in the survival and differentiation of several neuronal populations. The C-terminal tail of TrkA contains a PPXY motif, the binding site of the E3 ubiquitin-ligase Nedd4-2 (neural precursor cell expressed, developmentally down-regulated 4-2). In order to analyze the role of Nedd4-2 ubiquitination on TrkA function, we...
