NCBI Description

Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and neurturin (NTN) are two structurally related, potent neurotrophic factors that play key roles in the control of neuron survival and differentiation. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the GDNF receptor family. It is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol(GPI)-linked cell surface receptor for both GDNF and NTN, and mediates activation of the RET tyrosine kinase receptor. This encoded protein acts preferentially as a receptor for NTN compared to its other family member, GDNF family receptor alpha 1. This gene is a candidate gene for RET-associated diseases. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

Uniprot Description

GFRA2: Receptor for neurturin. Mediates the NRTN-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. Also able to mediate GDNF signaling through the RET tyrosine kinase receptor. Belongs to the GDNFR family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Membrane protein, GPI anchor

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 8p21.3

Cellular Component: extrinsic component of membrane; intracellular; plasma membrane

Molecular Function: glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor receptor activity; Ras guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity

Biological Process: axon guidance; MAPK cascade; negative regulation of protein autophosphorylation; positive regulation of GTPase activity; positive regulation of peptidyl-serine phosphorylation of STAT protein; transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway

Product Notes

The GFRa2 gfra2 (Catalog #AAA2032465) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Glial Cell Line Derived Neurotrophic Factor Receptor Alpha 2 (GFRa2) Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Glial Cell Line Derived Neurotrophic Factor Receptor Alpha 2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Formalin/Paraffin, ELISA (EIA). Western Blot: 1:50-400 Immunohistochemistry in formalin fixed frozen section: 1:50-500 Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay: 1:100-200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the GFRa2 gfra2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Glial Cell Line Derived Neurotrophic Factor Receptor Alpha 2, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
