Abstract:
The functions of the 75-kilodalton neurotrophin receptor p75(NTR) have remained enigmatic despite nearly three decades of study. Recent studies reveal that p75(NTR) is a versatile co-receptor that controls signaling by receptors for multiple ligands that provide repellant guidance cues to developing axons.
