CC -!- FUNCTION: Brainstem-restricted receptor for GDF15 which regulates food
CC intake, energy expenditure and body weight in response to metabolic and
CC toxin-induced stresses (PubMed:28953886, PubMed:28846099,
CC PubMed:28846097, PubMed:28846098). Upon interaction with its ligand,
CC GDF15, interacts with RET and induces cellular signaling through
CC activation of MAPK- and AKT- signaling pathways (PubMed:28846098,
CC PubMed:28846099). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846097,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846098, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846099,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:28953886}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts (via the extracellular domain) with GDF15 and RET;
CC receptor of GDF15, mediates cellular signaling through interaction with
CC RET after GDF15-binding (PubMed:28846098, PubMed:28846099). Interaction
CC with RET requires previous GDF15-binding (PubMed:28846099).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846098, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846099}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass membrane
CC protein {ECO:0000305}; Extracellular side {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:
CC Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2;
CC Name=A;
CC IsoId=Q6SJE0-1; Sequence=Displayed;
CC Name=B;
CC IsoId=Q6SJE0-2; Sequence=VSP_019295, VSP_019296;
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the brainstem, restricted to cells in
CC the area postrema and the immediately adjacent region of the nucleus
CC tractus solitarius. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846097,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846099, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28953886}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: On a chow diet, mutants show no difference in
CC food intake, energy expenditure or body weight compare to wild-type
CC controls. On high-fat diet, they gain substantially more weight and are
CC more glucose intolerant. Diet-induced obese mutants are hyperphagic and
CC have 32% greater total mass and 9% greater lean mass than diet-induced
CC obese wild-type mice (PubMed:28953886, PubMed:28846097,
CC PubMed:28846099). Upon chronical administration of GDF15, mutants are
CC refractory to the GDF15 effects in comparison to wild-types that show
CC attenuated food-intake and sustained weightloss (PubMed:28846098,
CC PubMed:28953886, PubMed:28846097, PubMed:28846099).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846097, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846098,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846099, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28953886}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the GDNFR family. {ECO:0000305}.
