Palmitoylation of the p75 neurotrophin receptor is required for retrograde regressive signaling
Target-derived neurotrophins regulate neuronal survival and pruning via retrograde signaling. Unlike Trk receptors, which are transported as transmembrane proteins, the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) undergoes regulated intramembrane proteolysis to release a soluble intracellular domain (ICD) that must somehow asso...
