Summary: Enables protein homodimerization activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including autonomic nervous system development; axon extension; and branchiomeric skeletal muscle development. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Predicted to be active in axon and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including nervous system; pharyngeal arch; presumptive enteric nervous system; pronephros; and vagal neural crest. Used to study Hirschsprung's disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Hirschsprung's disease; familial medullary thyroid carcinoma; multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A; multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B; and pheochromocytoma. Orthologous to human RET (ret proto-oncogene). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

A two-site flexible clamp mechanism for RET-GDNF-GFRalpha1 assembly reveals both conformational adaptation and strict geometric spacing.
Title: A two-site flexible clamp mechanism for RET-GDNF-GFRα1 assembly reveals both conformational adaptation and strict geometric spacing.
Authors observed no interaction between efn-A5b and RET from zebrafish, this lack of association indicates how complex efn-A signaling is and suggests that there may be other molecules involved in efn-A5-induced RET signaling.

These data provide the first evidence for a physiologic role of these isoforms in RET pathway function.
Title: Exon Skipping in the RET Gene Encodes Novel Isoforms That Differentially Regulate RET Protein Signal Transduction.
Significantly, we show that introduction of mapk10 mutations into ret heterozygotes enhanced the ENS deficit, supporting MAPK10 as a Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) susceptibility locus. Our studies demonstrate that ret heterozygous zebrafish is a sensitized model, with many significant advantages over existing murine models, to explore the pathophysiology and complex genetics of HSCR.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
