Summary

Expression: HEK293
Functional: Yes (ELISA)
Amino Acid Range: Asp25-Ser424

SKU: 4134parent Categories: proteins, Recombinant proteins Tag: active proteins

Weight	1 lbs
Dimensions	9 × 5 × 2 in
accession	NP_665736
express system	HEK293
product tag	C-His
purity	> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE;> 95% as determined by HPLC
background	Neuroblastomas often undergo spontaneous differentiation and/or regression in vivo, which is at least partly regulated by the signals through neurotrophins and their receptors. Recently, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and a second family member, neurturin (NTN), have been found to mediate their signals by binding to a heterotetrameric complex of c-Ret tyrosine kinase receptors and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-linked proteins, GFR alpha-1 (GDNFR-alpha) or GFR alpha-2 (TrnR2/GDNFR-beta/NTNR-alpha/RETL2).
molecular weight	The protein has a predicted MW of 45.8 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 50-70 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.
available size	100 µg, 500 µg
endotoxin	Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Protein names 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)
Protein family GDNFR family
Mass 51456Da
Function Coreceptor for GDNF, a neurotrophic factor that enhances survival and morphological differentiation of dopaminergic neurons and increases their high-affinity dopamine uptake (PubMed:10829012, PubMed:31535977). GDNF-binding leads to autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor (PubMed:31535977). {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:10829012, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:31535977}.
Subellular location Cell membrane {ECO:0000250\|UniProtKB:Q62997}; Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor {ECO:0000250\|UniProtKB:Q62997}. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network {ECO:0000250\|UniProtKB:Q62997}. Endosome {ECO:0000250\|UniProtKB:Q62997}. Endosome, multivesicular body {ECO:0000250\|UniProtKB:Q62997}. Note=Localizes mainly to the plasma membrane. In the presence of SORL1, shifts to vesicular structures, including trans-Golgi network, endosomes and multivesicular bodies. {ECO:0000250\|UniProtKB:Q62997}.
Structure Interacts with GDNF ligand and RET: forms a 2:2:2 ternary complex composed of GDNF ligand, GFRA1 and RET receptor (PubMed:23333276, PubMed:31535977). Interacts with SORL1, either alone or in complex with GDNF (PubMed:23333276). Interaction between SORL1 and GFRA1 leads to GFRA1 internalization, but not degradation (PubMed:23333276). {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:23333276, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:31535977}.
