Figure Legend Snippet: Sortilin-mediated binding and internalisation of NT3 and proNT3 (A–J) HEK293 cells transfected with Sortilin, p75 NTR or proSortilin as indicated were incubated with 50nM of the given ligand (NT3 (A–C) , proNT3 (D–F) , or GST-NT3pro (G–J) ) for 40 minutes at 37° C. Internalised ligand was visualised by immunofluorescence labelling with specific antibodies. Mature NT3 and proNT3 were detected with anti-NT3, whereas GST-NT3pro was detected with an anti-GST antibody. Cells transfected with Sortilin showed no binding and uptake of NT3 (A) , but internalisation was detected of both proNT3 (D) and GST-NT3pro (G) . The uptake of proNT3 could be inhibited by addition of NTS (E) . Cells transfected with p75 NTR displayed strong surface labelling after incubation with NT3 (C) and proNT3 (F) , but no binding of GST-NT3pro (I) .

Figure Legend Snippet: Crosslinking and precipitation of p75 NTR :Sortilin:proNT3 complexes HEK293 cells transfected with an endocytosis-impaired variant of Sortilin, Sortilin-mut, and p75 NTR as indicated were incubated with or without 50 nM ligand (proNT3 or proNGF) before treatment with crosslinker. Receptor:ligand complexes were immunoprecipitated with anti-p75 NTR , and components were visualised after reducing SDS-PAGE by immunoblotting with anti-Sortilin, anti-proNT3, and anti-p75 NTR . The expression of Sortilin and p75 NTR in input cell lysates were confirmed by immunoblotting.

Figure Legend Snippet: Immunoblotting of inner ear tissue for Sortilin, p75 NTR , proNT3 and mature NT3 Subfractions of membranous labyrinth from dissected newborn rats (P3–P5) were pooled, homogenised and centrifuged. The supernatants were subjected to SDS-PAGE followed by immunoblotting for Sortilin, p75 NTR , proNT3 and mature NT3. Beta-actin (~42 kDa) blots are included for evaluation of total protein concentration. (A) Sortilin (~98 kDa) was detected in whole-organ cochleae (Co) and in all in the subfractions i.e. the stria vascularis (I), the organ of Corti with Reissner’s membrane attached (II), the modiolus (not including the spiral ganglion) (III), and the spiral ganglion (IV). (B) P75 NTR (~64 kDa) was detected in the modiolus (III) and the SG (IV). (C) ProNT3 and NT3 were detected in all subfractions. (D) The specificity of proNT3 and NT3 antibodies was tested by immunoblotting of recombinant human proNGF (lane 1 (5 ng) and 2 (1 ng)), proNT3 (lane 3 (5 ng) and 4 (1 ng)), and NT3 (lane 5 (5 ng) and 6 (1 ng)). The proNT3 antibody recognises only proNT3, while the NT3 antibody detects both the proform and the mature form of NT3. kDa kilodalton, Co whole-organ membranous cochlea, p75 NTR p75 neurotrophin receptor, proNT3 proform of neurotrophin-3, NT3 mature form of neurotrophin-3, αSortilin anti-Sortilin, αp75 NTR anti- p75 NTR , αproNT3 anti-proNT3, αNT3 anti-NT3 , αbeta-actin anti-beta actin, P3–P5 postnatal day 3–5

Figure Legend Snippet: ProNT3 induced apoptosis in SCG neurons The apoptotic potential of proNT3 was tested in SCG neurons. Here is shown the number of apoptotic neurons in percent of the total number counted. SCG neurons were incubated in growth media containing NGF (20ng/ml), NT3 (2ng/ml), proNGF (2ng/ml) or proNT3 (4ng/ml). After 36 hours, SCG cultures were fixed, immunostained with α-Tuj1, α-Sortilin and DAPI and subjected to apoptosis analysis by morphological evaluation. The results demonstrate that NGF (as opposed to NT3) is imperative for SCG neuron survival. In contrast, both proNGF and proNT3 significantly increased the proportion of apoptotic neurons compared to NGF withdrawal alone.

Figure Legend Snippet: SPR analysis of ligand binding to immobilised Sortilin SPR analysis of receptor-ligand interactions between the NT3 and immobilised Sortilin demonstrated that mature NT3 binds to Sortilin with a Kd ~20 μM (A) . This affinity is significantly lower than the affinity found for the interaction between proNT3 and Sortilin (Kd ~20 nM) (B) , and for the interaction between the receptor and the prodomain sequence of proNT3 fused to GST (Kd~20 nM) (D) . The interaction between Sortilin and proNT3 can be inhibited by the well-known Sortilin ligand neurotensin (C) .
