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.,ALXDRD,GFAP,Signal Transduction,Cell Biology & Developmental Biology,Cell Adhesion,Cytoskeleton,Intermediate Filaments,Neuroscience,Cell Type Marker,Stem Cells,Neural Stem Cells,Astrocyte marker,Microglia marker,GFAP
