Binding sites for intracellular signaling molecules are indicated. Assignment of functions to specific phosphotyrosines is described in the text.

The nerve growth cone is located in the distal chip of a growing axon and its movement plays an important role in axon elongation and guidance (left). When the nerve growth cone receives repulsive stimuli, it becomes collapsed (right) and the axon stops growing to the direction. • Neurotropic in mammalian CNS – Brain NGF • • • • Molecules mRNA Receptors -Sensitive neurons – Regulates differentiation cholinergic neurons in basal forebrain – Counteracts learning, memory deficits in lesioned animals – Alzheimer’s therapy??
