Gene Symbol GFAP
Gene Full Name glial fibrillary acidic protein
Background This gene encodes one of the major intermediate filament proteins of mature astrocytes. It is used as a marker to distinguish astrocytes from other glial cells during development. Mutations in this gene cause Alexander disease, a rare disorder of astrocytes in the central nervous system. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
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. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Cytoplasm. Note=Associated with intermediate filaments. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 50 kDa
PTM Phosphorylated by PKN1. [UniProt]
