Background: BDNF
BDNF is a member of the NGF family of neurotrophic factors that are required for the differentiation and survival of neuronal subpopulations in the central and peripheral nervous systems. BDNF functions through interactions with the TrkB receptor tyrosine kinase and the low affinity neurotrophin receptor, p75 (NTR). The human BDNF cDNA encodes 247 amino acids (aa). Cleavage of an 18 aa signal sequence produces an approximately 35 kDa Pro-BDNF form. The N-terminal pro region of BDNF is removed by tPA and furin to release biologically active, 14 kDa BDNF. The propeptides of human and mouse BDNF share 93% aa sequence identity.
