Background

Glial Cell Line-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Family Receptor α-1 (GDNFRα1) is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) linked cell surface protein belonging to GDNF-family receptor α subtype which consists of at least four members. GFRα1and GFRα2 are the cognate co-receptor for the neurotrophic factor neurturin mediating the NRTN-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET tyrosine kinase receptor. Soluble GFRαs released enzymatically from the cell surface by phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C, as well as recombinantly produced soluble GFRα1, can also bind with high affinity to GDNF and trigger the activation of Ret tyrosine kinase. Human GFRα1 shares 93% amino acid identity with mouse GFRα1.The expression of the various GFRαs are differentially regulated in the central and peripheral nervous system, suggesting complementary roles for the GFRαs in mediating the activities of the GDNF family of neurotrophic factors.

Properties

Human proteins, cDNA and human recombinants are used in human reactive ELISA kits and to produce anti-human mono and polyclonal antibodies. Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens). Depending on the epitopes used human ELISA kits can be cross reactive to many other species. Mainly analyzed are human serum, plasma, urine, saliva, human cell culture supernatants and biological samples.

Description

The receptors are ligand binding factors of type 1, 2 or 3 and protein-molecules that receive chemical-signals from outside a cell. When such chemical-signals couple or bind to a receptor, they cause some form of cellular/tissue-response, e.g. a change in the electrical-activity of a cell. In this sense, am olfactory receptor is a protein-molecule that recognizes and responds to endogenous-chemical signals, chemokinesor cytokines e.g. an acetylcholine-receptor recognizes and responds to its endogenous-ligand, acetylcholine. However, sometimes in pharmacology, the term is also used to include other proteins that are drug-targets, such as enzymes, transporters and ion-channels.
