Molecular Weight | The recombinant human TrkC/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimeric protein after removal of the signal peptide. It consists of 644 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 72.5 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, rh TrkC/Fc monomer migrates as an approximately 110-120 kDa protein in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. |
predicted N | Cys 32 |

Purity | > 98 % as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Protein Construction | A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain (Met1-Asp428) of human TrkC (NP_001007157.1) was fused with the C-terminal polyhistidine-tagged Fc region of human IgG1 at the C-terminus. |
Bio-activity | Immobilized human TrKc-Fch at 10 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated human NT3 (P10286-HNA), The EC50 of biotinylated human NT3 (P10286-HNA) is 23.4-54.6 ng/ml. |

Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4 1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose and mannitol are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA. |
Background | NT-3 growth factor receptor also known as neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor type 3 or TrkC tyrosine kinase or Trk-C receptor, is a member of the neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) family. This kinase is a membrane-bound receptor that, upon neurotrophin binding, phosphorylates itself and members of the MAPK pathway. TrkC/NTRK3 is widely expressed in the developing and adult nervous system. In later embryonic development, TrkC/NTRK3 is expressed in various structures of the CNS including the caudatoputamen, septal nuclei, cerebellum, and brainstem. Other neurotrophins include nerve growth factor(NGF), neurotrophin-3 and neurotrophin-4. In the PNS, trkC hybridization appears to correlate, both temporally and spatially, with the outgrowth of axons toward their peripheral targets. TrkC/NTRK3 is widely expressed in the three identified branches of the mammalian nervous system and appears to correlate with the expression of NT-3, its cognate ligand. The apparent colocalization of trkC transcripts with NT-3 raises the possibility this neurotrophin exerts its trophic effects by a paracrine and/or autocrine mechanism. Signalling through this kinase leads to cell differentiation and may play a role in the development of proprioceptive neurons that sense body position. Mutations in TrkC encoding gene have been associated with medulloblastomas, secretory breast carcinomas and other cancers. |
