RT GFRAL.";
RL Nat. Med. 23:1215-1219(2017).
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 (Probable). Upon interaction with its ligand,
CC GDF15, interacts with RET and induces cellular signaling through
CC activation of MAPK- and AKT- signaling pathways (By similarity).

CC ECO:0000305|PubMed:28846098, ECO:0000305|PubMed:28846099}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000305|PubMed:28846098};
CC Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255}; Extracellular side
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:28846098}.
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 (PubMed:28846097, PubMed:28846099). Detected at low
CC levels in testis (PubMed:28846099). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846097,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:28846099}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the GDNFR family. {ECO:0000305}.
