| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the cortex and hippocampus. Expression decreases following acute and chronic corticosterone treatment. |
| 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. |
