Gene nameGFRA2
Protein nameGDNF family receptor alpha 2
GDNF family receptor alpha-2 (GDNF receptor alpha-2) (GDNFR-alpha-2) (GFR-alpha-2) (GDNF receptor beta) (GDNFR-beta) (Neurturin receptor alpha) (NRTNR-alpha) (NTNR-alpha) (RET ligand 2) (TGF-beta-related neurotrophic factor receptor 2)
GDNF family receptor alpha-2
SynonymsGDNFRB
RETL2
TRNR2
DescriptionFUNCTION: 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.; FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: Participates in NRTN-induced 'Ser-727' phosphorylation of STAT3. .
