Hirschsprung disease 3 (HSCR3)4 Publications
Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Disease descriptionA disorder of neural crest development characterized by absence of enteric ganglia along a variable length of the intestine. It is the most common cause of congenital intestinal obstruction. Early symptoms range from complete acute neonatal obstruction, characterized by vomiting, abdominal distention and failure to pass stool, to chronic constipation in the older child.

Pheochromocytoma (PCC)1 Publication
The gene represented in this entry may act as a disease modifier.
Disease descriptionA catecholamine-producing tumor of chromaffin tissue of the adrenal medulla or sympathetic paraganglia. The cardinal symptom, reflecting the increased secretion of epinephrine and norepinephrine, is hypertension, which may be persistent or intermittent.

In the brain, predominantly expressed in the striatum with highest levels in the caudate and lowest in the putamen. Isoform 2 is absent from most tissues except for low levels in intestine and kidney. Highest expression of isoform 3 is found in pancreatic islets. Isoform 5 is expressed at very low levels in putamen, nucleus accumbens, prefrontal cortex, amygdala, hypothalamus and intestine. Isoform 3 is up-regulated in the middle temporal gyrus of Alzheimer disease patients while isoform 2 shows no change.2 Publications

Homodimer; disulfide-linked (PubMed:8493557, PubMed:8988018, PubMed:19478429).

Interacts with RET (PubMed:21994944).

Interacts (via propeptide) with SORL1 (via N-terminal ectodomain); this interaction affects GDNF-regulated, but not constitutive secretion (PubMed:15364913, PubMed:21994944, PubMed:23333276).

Also interacts with SORL1 in complex with GFRA1; this interaction leads to GDNF endocytosis and lysosomal degradation (PubMed:23333276).
