Ntrk3 - neurotrophic tyrosine kinase, receptor, type 3

Predicted to enable several functions, including GPI-linked ephrin receptor activity; neurotrophin binding activity; and p53 binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including lens fiber cell differentiation; neurogenesis; and neuronal action potential propagation. 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).
