Application Details

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Format: Liquid

Buffer: PBS containing 0.02 % sodium azide.

Preservative: Sodium azide

Precaution of Use: WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.

Handling Advice: Avoid freezing and thawing repeatly.

Storage: 4 °C/-20 °C

Storage Comment: Store at 4 °C for short term use.Store at -20 °C for long term preservation.

Background: Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a potent survival factor for central and peripheral neurons and is essential for the development of kidneys and the enteric nerves system.Physiological responses to GDNF require the presence of a novel glycosylphosphadidylinositol linked protein GDNFRalpha, which is a cell surface receptor for GDNF.The cDNAs encoding GDNFRalpha from human, rat, chicken and mouse have been cloned recently.GDNFRalpha was also termed Ret ligand 1 (RETL1) or TGF-beta-related neurotrophic factor receptor 1 (TrnR1) and nominated as GFRalpha-1 recently.GFRalpha-1 binds GDNF specifically and mediates activation of the Ret protein tyrosine kinase (PTK).Thus, GDNF, GFRalpha and the Ret PTK form a complex to transduce GDNF signal and to mediate GDNF function.
