Description

Introduction
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor family receptor alpha-1 (GDNF Rα1), also known as GFR?2 and Trn R1, is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) linked cell surface protein belonging to GDNF-family receptor alpha subtype which consists of at least four members. GFRα1 and 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.

BP001418-C471: Recombinant Human GDNF Family Receptor α-1 (GFRA1) Protein

Source: HEK 293-derived.
Recombinant Human GDNF Family Receptor α-1 (GFRA1) Protein is expressed with sequence (Asp25-Lys429) of Human GFRA1 fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
Purity: > 95% by SEC-HPLC and reducing SDS-PAGE.
Endotoxin: < 0.1 ng/ug (1 IEU/ug).
Formulation: Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.2.
Reconstitution: Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 ug/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 1X PBS. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
