developmental stage:Expressed during embryogenesis. High level expression seen in fetal kidney and lung while a low level expression seen in the fetal brain.,function:Ligand for the GFR-alpha-3-RET receptor complex but can also activate the GFR-alpha-1-RET receptor complex. Supports the survival of sensory and sympathetic peripheral neurons in culture and also supports the survival of dopaminergic neurons of the ventral mid-brain.,similarity:Belongs to the TGF-beta family. GDNF subfamily.,subunit:Homodimer; disulfide-linked.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous. Expressed at high levels in peripheral tissues including prostate, placenta, pancreas, heart, kidney, pituitary gland, lung and testis. Expressed at low levels in the brain.,
