    Summary
    Enables granulocyte colony-stimulating factor binding activity and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor stimulus. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in early conceptus; female reproductive system; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis. Orthologous to human CSF2RA (colony stimulating factor 2 receptor subunit alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    2. These data show that loss of membrane GM-CSFRalpha following GM-CSF exposure does not preclude sustained GM-CSF/GM-CSFRalpha signaling and that this receptor plays a key role in ligand clearance. Hence neutrophilic activation via GM-CSFR may play an important role in neutrophilic lung inflammation even in the absence of high GM-CSF levels or GM-CSFRalpha expression.

    3. we have demonstrated that CFP1 plays a crucial role in GM-CSF-derived macrophages, in which it positively regulates phagocytic and bactericidal activity mainly through promoting Csf2ralpha expression and the subsequent activation of downstream pathways.

    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.
