| Tissue Specificity | Widely expressed in adult and fetus which exhibit a similar pattern. Essentially not expressed in the central nervous system, but highly expressed in several sensory and sympathetic ganglia of the peripheral nervous system. Moderate expression in many non-neuronal tissues, particularly those of the digestive and urogenital systems, but high expression in stomach and appendix. Several types of glandular tissues show low expression. Very low or no expression detected in the hematopoietic system. |
| Post Translational Modifications | N-glycosylated. |
| Function | Receptor for artemin (ARTN), a growth factor that supports the survival of sensory and sympathetic peripheral neurons. ARTN-binding leads to autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. |
