Function | Receptor for persephin (PSPN), a growth factor that exhibits neurotrophic activity on mesencephalic dopaminergic and motor neurons. Acts by binding to its coreceptor, GFRA4, leading to autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. May be important in C-cell development and, in the postnatal development of the adrenal medulla. |
