Gene Symbol | GFAP |
Gene Full Name | glial fibrillary acidic protein |
Background | GFAP is 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 is a class-III intermediate filament. It is a cell-specific marker that, during the development of the central nervous system, distinguishes astrocytes from other glial cells. [UniProt] |

Immunohistochemistry: Frozen section of Mouse C57BL/6Jnarl brain tissue. The tissue section was fixed by 4% formalin and blocked with BSA with 3% Goat serum, at RT for 1 hour. Tissue section was then stained with ARG52312 anti-GFAP antibody at 1:500 dilution, in PBS with 1% Goat serum, overnight at 4°C.
Blue: DAPI
Yellow: Venus reporter gene
