Abstract

NTNR.alpha., NTNR.alpha. extracellular domain (ECD), NTNR.alpha. variants, chimeric NTNR.alpha. (e.g., NTNR.alpha. immunoadhesin), and antibodies which bind thereto (including agonist and neutralizing antibodies) are disclosed. Various uses for these molecules are described, including methods to modulate cell activity and survival by response to NTNR.alpha.-ligands, for example NTN, by providing NTNR.alpha. to the cell.
