|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | GAP43 |
| Gene Full Name | growth associated protein 43 |
| Background | The protein encoded by this gene has been termed a 'growth' or 'plasticity' protein because it is expressed at high levels in neuronal growth cones during development and axonal regeneration. This protein 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 this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
| Function | This protein is associated with nerve growth. It is a major component of the motile "growth cones" that form the tips of elongating axons. Plays a role in axonal and dendritic filopodia induction. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 25 kDa |
| PTM | Phosphorylated at Ser-41 by PHK. Phosphorylation of this protein by a protein kinase C is specifically correlated with certain forms of synaptic plasticity. Palmitoylation by ARF6 is essential for plasma membrane association and axonal and dendritic filopodia induction. Deacylated by LYPLA2. |

Immunofluorescence: Cortical neuron-glial cells from E20 Rat stained with ARG10716 anti-GAP43 antibody [5E8] (red) at 1:1000 dilution and costained with ARG52313 anti-GFAP antibody (green) at 1:2000 dilution. DAPI (blue) for nuclear staining.
The GAP43 antibody labels protein expressed in the axonal membrane of neuronal cells, while the GFAP antibody stains astroglial cells.

Western blot: Rat brain, Rat spinal cord, Mouse brain, Mouse spinal cord, C6 and SH-SY5Y cell lysates stained with ARG10716 anti-GAP43 antibody [5E8] (green) at 1:2000 dilution.
The protein is expressed in rodent and Human neurons and neuronal derived cells but not in C6 cells which are of glial origin.
