About GFRAL
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 174 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.
Summary
Enables glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor receptor activity and receptor tyrosine kinase binding activity. Involved in glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of MAPK cascade; and positive regulation of protein kinase B signaling. Located in external side of plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
