Background

GFRA2/GDNFR-alpha-2 Protein serves as the receptor for neurturin, facilitating the NRTN-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. Additionally, it plays a role in mediating GDNF signaling through the RET tyrosine kinase receptor. Notably, GFRA2/GDNFR-alpha-2 is involved in the NRTN-induced phosphorylation of STAT3 at 'Ser-727,' highlighting its participation in signaling pathways associated with cell responses. These interactions underscore the significance of GFRA2 in transducing signals that regulate cellular processes and contribute to the intricate network of signaling events involved in neuronal development and maintenance.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
