Regulation
Activation:
Activated by binding BDNF, NT-3, NT-4 or NT-5 growth factor, which induces dimerization and autophosphorylation. Phosphorylation at Tyr-516 increases phosphotransferase activity and induces interaction with PLCg1.
Inhibition:
NA
Synthesis:
NA
Degradation:
NA

Disease Linkage
General Disease Association:
Cancer, metabolic disorders
Specific Diseases (Non-cancerous):
Obesity; Obesity, Hyperphagia, and developmental delay (OHPDD)
Comments:
Obesity is considered a rare disease with regard to a genetic propensity. Obesity can arise from excessive weight in muscle, bone, fat, and or body water. Obesity, Hyperphagia, and Developmental Delay (OHPDD) is a condition characterized by obesity at a young age, increased appetite for food (hyperphagia), and a severe delay in the development of speech, language, and motor control. In OHPDD an Y706C mutation in the TRKB gene will inhibit phosphorylation.
Specific Cancer Types:
Pilocytic astrocytomas; Neuroblastomas (NB)
Comments:
TRKB is linked to Pilocytic Astrocytomas, which are benign tumours of the brain or spinal cord that grow slowly.
Gene Expression in Cancers:
TranscriptoNET (www.transcriptonet.ca) analysis with mRNA expression data retrieved from the National Center for Biotechnology Information's Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, which was normalized against 60 abundantly and commonly found proteins, indicated altered expression for this protein kinase as shown here as the percent change from normal tissue controls (%CFC) as supported with the Student T-test in the following types of human cancers: Barrett's esophagus epithelial metaplasia (%CFC= -48, p<0.002); Breast epithelial carcinomas (%CFC= -53, p<0.048); Clear cell renal cell carcinomas (cRCC) stage I (%CFC= -78, p<0.0006); Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) (%CFC= +81, p<0.033); Lung adenocarcinomas (%CFC= -57, p<0.0001); Malignant pleural mesotheliomas (MPM) tumours (%CFC= -67, p<0.011); Pituitary adenomas (ACTH-secreting) (%CFC= -79, p<0.095); Skin melanomas - malignant (%CFC= -69, p<0.001); and Skin squamous cell carcinomas (%CFC= -52, p<0.032). The COSMIC website notes an up-regulated expression score for TRKB in diverse human cancers of 353, which is 0.8-fold of the average score of 462 for the human protein kinases. The down-regulated expression score of 1 for this protein kinase in human cancers was 98% lower than the average score of 60 for the human protein kinases.
Mutagenesis Experiments:
Insertional mutagenesis studies in mice have not yet revealed a role for this protein kinase in mouse cancer oncogenesis.
Mutation Rate in All Cancers:
Percent mutation rates per 100 amino acids length in human cancers: 0.1 % in 25532 diverse cancer specimens. This rate is only 37 % higher than the average rate of 0.075 % calculated for human protein kinases in general.
Mutation Rate in Specific Cancers:
Highest percent mutation rates per 100 amino acids length in human cancers: 0.48 % in 1093 large intestine cancers tested; 0.35 % in 805 skin cancers tested; 0.31 % in 589 stomach cancers tested; 0.3 % in 602 endometrium cancers tested; 0.24 % in 1943 lung cancers tested; 0.14 % in 1270 liver cancers tested; 0.1 % in 1488 breast cancers tested.
Frequency of Mutated Sites:
None > 5 in 20,678 cancer specimens
Comments:
Only 1 deletion, and no insertions or complex mutations are noted on the COSMIC website.
