GFAP (clone G-A-5), anti-human, rat, pig

Background:
Glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) is an intermediate filament protein of 52Kda. GFAP gene is mapped to human 17q21. GFAP is a useful marker of astroglia in the brain. Mutations in GFAP, encoding glial fibrillary acidic protein, are associated with Alexander disease.

Decription:
Mouse IgG monoclonal antibody for GFAP, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) detection. Tested with WB, IHC-P, IHC-F in Human, pig, rat. No cross reactivity with other proteins.

Synonyms: FLJ45472, intermediate filament protein
