Annotation description:Figure 1: TrkB receptors interact and co-localize with Slitrk5 in HEK293T cells. Super resolution imaging of DIV6 striatal neurons, treated with or without BDNF, showed surface-TrkB-receptors colocalized with Slitrk5 in a BDNF-dependent manner.

Figure 2: PTPδ and TrkB compete for binding to Slitrk5.

Figure 5: Slitrk5 facilitates TrkB receptor recruitment into Rab11-positive compartments.

Figure 6: Slitrk5 interacts with Rab11-FIP3 to facilitate TrkB receptor trafficking to Rab11-positive recycling endosomes

Authors conclude; "Here, we have shown that Slitrk5, a postsynaptic plasma membrane protein containing extracellular LRR domains, interacts under basal conditions with the presynaptic adhesion molecule PTPδ in trans, but in the presence of BDNF, shifts to a cis-interaction with TrkB receptor that mediates its postendocytic recycling, leading to functional resensitization of neurotrophic signaling."

"Here, we report that Slitrk5 modulates BDNF-dependent biological responses through direct interaction with TrkB receptors. Under basal conditions, Slitrk5 interacts primarily with a trans-synaptic binding partner, PTPδ; however, upon BDNF stimulation, Slitrk5 shifts to cis-interactions with TrkB. In the absence of Slitrk5, TrkB has a reduced rate of ligand-dependent recycling and altered responsiveness to BDNF treatment"
