This antibody detects Human GFRa-2 and doesn't cross-react with hGFRa-1, hGFRa-3, hGFRa-4. Other species not tested.
Purification
Affinity Chromatography
Immunogen
Recombinant His-tagged human GFRa-2 protein produced using CHO-based. For production of hGFRa-2, glycosylphosphatidyl-inositol GPI-anchor was removed and protein was secreted to the cell culture supernatant. Protein was purified by Ni-affinity chromatography following gel-filtration from cell culture supernatant.

Background
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and neurturin (NTN) are two structurally related, potent neurotrophic factors that play key roles in the control of neuron survival and differentiation. The GFRa-1 is a member of the GDNF receptor family. It is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked cell surface receptor for both GDNF and NTN, and mediates activation of the RET tyrosine kinase receptor (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/2674).
