GAP-43 polyclonal antibody, anti-human, mouse, rat

Background:
Neuromodulin encoded by GAP43 has been termed a ‘growth' or ‘plasticity' protein because it is expressed at high levels in neuronal growth cones during development and axonal regeneration. Neuromodulin is considered a crucial component of an effective regenerative response in the nervous system. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for GAP43.

Research Area: Neuroscience
