The antibody detects endogenous level of total GAP43 protein.
Purification
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography usingepitope-specific immunogen.
Immunogen
Peptide sequence around AA 38-43 (Q-A-S-F-R) derived from Human GAP43. Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic peptide and KLH conjugates.

Background
GAP43 encoded by this gene has been termed a 'growth' or 'plasticity' protein because it is expressed at high levels in neuronal growth cones during development and axonal regeneration. This protein is considered a crucial component of an effective regenerative response in the nervous system. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. Rachael L. Neve,
