Background
GAP-43 (growth associated protein 43, B-50, PP46, calmodulin-binding protein P-57, neuromodulin, neuron growth-associated protein 43, protein F1 is a crucial component for regenerative response in the nervous system. It is present at high levels in neuronal growth cones during development and axonal regeneration. GAP-43 is normally produced by neurons during developmental growth and axonal regeneration, but it is also expressed in specific regions of the normal adult nervous system. The neuron-specific Elav/Hu family member, HuD, interacts with and stabilizes GAP-43 mRNA in developing neurons and leads to increased levels of GAP-43 protein.Synonyms: Axonal membrane protein GAP-43, Growth-associated protein 43, Neural phosphoprotein B-50, Neuromodulin, PP46
