| Tissue Specificity | Isoform 1: found in both brain and placenta. |
| Function | Receptor for neurturin (NRTN), a growth factor that supports the survival of sympathetic neurons. NRTN-binding leads to autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. Also able to mediate GDNF signaling through the RET tyrosine kinase receptor. Isoform 2: Participates in NRTN-induced 'Ser-727' phosphorylation of STAT3. |
