Product Name :
GFRα-1 (K90) Peptide Applications :
Blocking Background :
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and the related neurotrophic factor neurturin (NTN) are potent survival factors for central and peripheral neurons. GDNF is a glycosylated, disulfide-bonded homodimer that is distantly related to the TGFβ superfamily of growth factors. Three receptors for these factors, GFRα-1 (also designated GDNFR-α, RETL1 or TrnR-1), GFRα-2 (also designated GDNFR-β, RETL2, NTNR-α or TrnR-2) and GFRα-3 have been identified. The receptors do not contain transmembrane domains and are attached to the cell membrane by glycosyl-phosphoinositol linkage. Both GFRα-1 and GFRα-2 have been shown to mediate the GDNF-dependent and NTN-dependent phosphorylation and activation of the tyrosine kinase Ret. GFRα-3 is expressed only during development. Alternative Name :
GDNF family receptor alpha-1; GDNF receptor alpha-1; GDNFR-alpha-1; GFR-alpha-1; RET ligand 1; TGF-beta-related neurotrophic factor receptor 1; GFRA1; GDNFRA; RETL1; TRNR1; GFRα1; GFR α1; GFR α-1; GFR α1 Swiss-Prot :
