GFR alpha-like is also known as GDNF family receptor alpha-like, GFRAL, C6orf144, UNQ9356, PRO34128.
Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF15) is a circulating protein that has been implicated in multiple biological processes, including energy homeostasis, body weight regulation, and cachexia driven by cancer and chronic disease.
GDNF family receptor α-like (GFRAL) was recently identified as the neuronal brainstem receptor responsible for mediating the anorectic actions of GDF15.
Brainstem-restricted receptor for GDF15 which regulates food intake, energy expenditure and body weight in response to metabolic and toxin-induced stresses .
Upon interaction with its ligand, GDF15, interacts with RET and induces cellular signaling through activation of MAPK- and AKT- signaling pathways.
特徴
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 39.6 kDa.
The protein migrates as 50-60 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
