Biological Activity

Description

GFRAL Protein, Rat (HEK293, His) is the recombinant rat-derived GFRAL, expressed by HEK293 , with N-His labeled tag.

Background

GFRAL protein is a brainstem-restricted receptor that plays a crucial role in regulating food intake, energy expenditure, and body weight in response to metabolic and toxin-induced stresses. Upon binding with its ligand, GDF15, GFRAL interacts with RET and activates MAPK- and AKT- signaling pathways. GFRAL interacts with GDF15 and RET through its extracellular domain, acting as a receptor for GDF15 and mediating cellular signaling through the interaction with RET after GDF15 binding. It is important to note that the interaction with RET requires previous GDF15 binding.
