Abstract excerpt
Molecular mechanisms that lead to congenital anomalies of kidneys and the lower urinary tract (CAKUT) are poorly understood. To elucidate the molecular basis for signaling specificity of GDNF-mediated RET signaling in kidney development, we characterized mice that exclusively express either the human RET9 or RET51 isoform, or express these isoforms with individual mutations in docking tyrosines for PTB and...
