Fyn tyrosine kinase, a member of the Src family, was recently reported to be present in neurons and glia cells. We investigated whether Fyn is involved in the Trk-dependent signal transduction pathways of neurotrophin. The Fyn-Src homology domain 2 (SH2) was observed to associate in vitro with the intracellular domain of TrkB (ICD-TrkB). This association was dependent on the autophosphorylation of ICD-TrkB. The Fyn-SH2 domains bound to phosphorylated ICD-TrkB (pICD-TrkB) with an affinity similar to the binding of phospholipase Cgamma (PLCgamma)-SH2 domains to its autophosphorylation site in TrkB. The Src-SH2 domains showed substantially lower affinity with pICD-TrkB, suggesting that the association between Fyn-SH2 and pICD-TrkB is not due to nonspecific interactions of SH2 domains with phosphorylated tyrosine residues. This is further supported by the observation that Fyn-SH2 was able to trap phosphorylated TrkB in cell lysate prepared from primary rat cortical neurons stimulated with brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). In contrast, endogenous Fyn was coprecipitated with TrkB from cortical neurons without BDNF stimulation. This basal association showed a threefold increase on BDNF stimulation, probably due to the SH2/phosphotyrosine interaction that was observed in the cell-free system. All these data suggest the involvement of Fyn in the neurotrophin signal transduction pathways downstream of TrkB.
