Abstract

We have cloned and characterized the mouse homolog of the human trk proto-oncogene, a member of the protein tyrosine kinase (TK) receptor gene family. Here, we present the first report of a trk-encoded mRNA species in vivo. In situ hybridization analysis in the mouse embryo reveals a striking temporal and spatial regulation of trk transcription, with expression confined to the sensory cranial (trigeminal, superior, jugular) and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of neural crest origin. Recent reports have shown that TK receptors can play regulatory roles in embryonic development. Thus, the developmental mutations W in mouse and torso and sevenless in Drosophila represent genes that code for defective TK receptors. Our data show that trk, a gene associated with malignancy in humans, is a specific marker for a set of neural crest-derived sensory neurons, and are consistent with the hypothesis that this proto-oncogene may have an important role in the development or phenotype of the neurons where it is expressed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
