Summary: This gene encodes the alpha subunit of the 7S nerve growth factor (NGF) complex that is essential for the differentiation and survival of distinct populations of neurons in both the central and the peripheral nervous systems. This gene is located in a cluster of several related kallikrein genes on chromosome 7. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

What's a GeneRIF?

Exposure to music in mice can influence neurotrophin production in the hypothalamus. Physiological effects of music might be in part mediated by modulation of neurotrophins.
Title: Music exposure differentially alters the levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and nerve growth factor in the mouse hypothalamus.
NGF controls dendrite development in hippocampal neurons by binding to p75NTR and modulating the cellular targets of Notch
Title: NGF controls dendrite development in hippocampal neurons by binding to p75NTR and modulating the cellular targets of Notch.
We demonstrate that overexpression of nerve growth factor (NGF) in brown adipose tissue (BAT) of NGF-transgenic mice elevates both mRNA and protein levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF-receptors.
Title: Neural driven angiogenesis by overexpression of nerve growth factor.
The results suggest that the decreased availability of NGF after axotomy is a sufficient stimulus to induce the conditioning lesion effect in sympathetic neurons.
Title: Reduction in nerve growth factor availability leads to a conditioning lesion-like effect in sympathetic neurons.
Nerve growth factor is regulated by vasoactive intestinal peptide in the embryonic mouse.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
