Product overview
Recombinant Biotinylated Mouse GFRAL/GFR alpha-like Protein is expressed in HEK293 cells with a His tag and Avi tag at the N-terminus. It contains amino acid residues Gln20-Glu350 (UniProt accession: Q6SJE0-1).
Product Details
- Molecular Aliases
- GFR alpha-like; GFRAL; GRAL; C6orf144
- Protein Length
- Gln20-Glu350
- Expression System
- HEK293
- Theoretical Molecular Weight
- The protein has a predicted MW of 40.1 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 48-60 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result.
- Purity
- > 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE > 95% as determined by HPLC
- Endotoxin
- Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Buffer / Formulation
- Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.
- State
- Lyophilized
- Storage Conditions
- -20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3 months after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
- Reconstitution Advice
- Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for detailed instructions.

Background
GFR alpha -like (GDNF receptor-alpha-like) is a distant member of the GDNFR family of proteins. Mature human GFR alpha-like is a 376 amino acid (aa) type I transmembrane protein. It contains amino acid residues a 333 aa extracellular domain, a 20 aa transmembrane domain and a 23 aa cytoplasmic domain. GFRAL is a brainstem-restricted receptor for GDF15 which regulates food intake, energy expenditure and body weight in response to metabolic and toxin-induced stresses.
