Ntrk3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable several functions, including GPI-linked ephrin receptor activity; neurotrophin binding activity; and p53 binding activity. Involved in circadian rhythm. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including neurogenesis; neuronal action potential propagation; and positive regulation of nervous system development. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; and peripheral nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in adenoid cystic carcinoma; colorectal cancer; and stomach cancer. Orthologous to human NTRK3 (neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase 3).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Ntrk3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
