NTRK2 Recombinant Protein

Neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor type 2 (NTRK2) is also known as BDNF/NT-3 growth factors receptor, Tropomyosin-related kinase B (TRKB) and TrkB tyrosine kinase, which belongs to the protein kinase superfamily or Tyr protein kinase family. Insulin receptor subfamily. NTRK2 / TrkB contains two Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains, two LRR (leucine-rich) repeats, one LRRCT domain, one LRRNT domain, one protein kinase domain. NTRK2 / Trk-B is expressed in the central and peripheral nervous system. The catalytic activity of NTRK2 is “ATP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine = ADP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine phosphate”. NTRK2 / TrkB involved in the development and the maturation of the central and the peripheral nervous systems through regulation of neuron survival, proliferation, migration, differentiation, and synapse formation and plasticity.

Lyophilized Protein should be stored at -20˚ C or lower for long term storage. Upon reconstitution, working aliquots should be stored at -20˚ C or -70˚ C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
