GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1, a receptor for GDNF, mediates GDNF-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. It interacts with RET and forms a complex with disulfide-linked GDNF dimer, and interacts with SORL1. The SORL1-GFRA1 interaction results in GFRA1 internalization without degradation. GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Description

GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1, a receptor for GDNF, mediates GDNF-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. It interacts with RET and forms a complex with disulfide-linked GDNF dimer, and interacts with SORL1. The SORL1-GFRA1 interaction results in GFRA1 internalization without degradation. GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

GFRA1, known as GDNFR-alpha-1, operates as a pivotal receptor for glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF). Its functional significance lies in mediating the GDNF-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. In this molecular interplay, two molecules of GDNFR-alpha are proposed to intricately engage with the disulfide-linked GDNF dimer, forming a complex alongside two molecules of RET. This interaction with RET underscores GFRA1's role in orchestrating signaling cascades critical for cellular responses. Moreover, GFRA1 exhibits additional complexities in its interactions, forming complexes with SORL1, either independently or alongside GDNF. Notably, the interaction between SORL1 and GFRA1 results in the internalization of GFRA1 without degradation, adding a layer of regulatory sophistication to its cellular functions.
