Background: Growth Associated Protein 43 (GAP43) is a protein encoded by the GAP43 gene in humans. It is mapped to 3q13.31. The protein 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.
