Target Details for GDNF

Target: GDNF (Glial Cell Line Derived Neurotrophic Factor (GDNF))

Alternative Name: GDNF

Background:

Synonyms: Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor,hGDNF,Astrocyte-derived trophic factor,ATF,GDNF,

Tissue Specificity: In the brain, predominantly expressed in the striatum with highest levels in the caudate and lowest in the putamen. Isoform 2 is absent from most tissues except for low levels in intestine and kidney. Highest expression of isoform 3 is found in pancreatic islets. Isoform 5 is expressed at very low levels in putamen, nucleus accumbens, prefrontal cortex, amygdala, hypothalamus and intestine. Isoform 3 is up-regulated in the middle temporal gyrus of Alzheimer disease patients while isoform 2 shows no change. .

Background: GDNF, Glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the GDNF gene. GDNF is a small protein that potently promotes the survival of many types of neurons. GDNF is a founding member of the GDNF family of ligands (GFL). The GDNF gene is mapped to human chromosome 5p13.1-p12 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). This gene encodes a highly conserved neurotrophic factor. The recombinant form of this protein was shown to promote the survival and differentiation of dopaminergic neurons in culture, and was able to prevent apoptosisof motor neurons induced by axotomy. The encoded protein is processed to a mature secreted form that exists as a homodimer. The mature form of the protein is a ligand for the product of the RET (rearranged during transfection) protooncogene.

Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the TGF-beta family. GDNF subfamily.
