Figure 2
The components of RET signalling: GFLs, GFRαs and RET. GFLs (GDNF, NRTN, ARTN and PSPN) each bind a specific coreceptor GFRα (GFRα1, GFRα2, GFRα3 and GFRα4) and activate the common signalling receptor RET (in light pink). The promiscuity of GFRα1 is shown, as it interacts with noncognate GFLs (dotted arrows) apart from PSPN. PM, plasma membrane; TK, tyrosine kinase domain; GPI, glycosylphosphatidyl inositol. |
