NCIt definition : SHC-transforming protein 3 (594 aa, 64 kDa) is encoded by the human SHC3 gene. This
protein is involved in the mediation of growth factor receptor-dependent signaling
pathways in neurons.;
NCIt note : SHC3 appears involved in signaling from BDNF/TRKB to the RAS/MAPK pathway. BDNF induces
tyrosine phosphorylation of SHC3 and binding to TRKB. Activated EGFR also interacts
with and tyrosine-phosphorylates SHC3, inducing an association with GRB2. SHC3 and
SCK mediate EGF signaling, but SHC3 has a higher affinity for TRKA and TRKB.;
