Immunogen Region: |
250-300 aa |
Specificity: |
Specific for GFAP. |
Immunogen: |
A synthetic peptide from aa region 250-300 of rat GFAP conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptide is homologous in mouse and rat. |
Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylated by PKN1. |
Function | GFAP, a class-III intermediate filament, is a cell-specific marker that, during the development of the central nervous system, distinguishes astrocytes from other glial cells. |
