TrkA is specifically detected in K562 human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line parental cell line but is not detectable in TrkA knockout K562 cell line. TrkA knockout K562 human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line was stained with Mouse Anti-Human TrkA APC-connjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB1751RA, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # IC002A, open histogram). No staining in the TrkA knockout K562 cell line was observed. View our protocol for Staining Membrane-associated Proteins.

Background: TrkA
TrkA, the product of the proto-oncogene trk, is a member of the neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor family that has three members. TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC preferentially bind NGF, NT-4 and BDNF, and NT-3, respectively. All Trk family proteins share a conserved complex subdomain organization consisting of a signal peptide, two cysteine-rich domains, a cluster of three leucine-rich motifs, and two immunoglobulin-like domains in the extracellular region, as well as an intracellular region that contains the tyrosine kinase domain. Two distinct TrkA isoforms that differ by virtue of a 6-amino acid insertion in their extracellular domain have been identified. The longer TrkA isoform is the only isoform expressed within neuronal tissues whereas the shorter TrkA is expressed mainly in non-neuronal tissues. NGF binds to TrkA with low affinity and activates its cytoplasmic kinase, initiating a signaling cascade that mediates neuronal survival and differentiation. Higher affinity binding of NGF requires the coexpression of TrkA with the p75 NGF receptor (NGF R), a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. NGF R binds all neurotrophins with low affinity and modulates Trk activity as well as alters the specificity of Trk receptors for their ligands. NGF R can also mediate cell death when expressed independent of Trk.
