GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

Cat. No.: HY-P76360
COA Handling Instructions

GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1, a receptor for GDNF, mediates GDNF-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. It interacts with RET and forms a complex with disulfide-linked GDNF dimer, and interacts with SORL1. The SORL1-GFRA1 interaction results in GFRA1 internalization without degradation. GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag. The total length of GFRA1/GDNFR-alpha-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is 401 a.a., with molecular weight of 55-65 KDa.

Background

GFRA1, known as GDNFR-alpha-1, operates as a pivotal receptor for glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF). Its functional significance lies in mediating the GDNF-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. In this molecular interplay, two molecules of GDNFR-alpha are proposed to intricately engage with the disulfide-linked GDNF dimer, forming a complex alongside two molecules of RET. This interaction with RET underscores GFRA1's role in orchestrating signaling cascades critical for cellular responses. Moreover, GFRA1 exhibits additional complexities in its interactions, forming complexes with SORL1, either independently or alongside GDNF. Notably, the interaction between SORL1 and GFRA1 results in the internalization of GFRA1 without degradation, adding a layer of regulatory sophistication to its cellular functions.

Molecular Weight

55-65 kDa.

Purity
  • Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
