Description

Description: Glial fibrillary acidic protein, or GFAP, is a class III intermediate filament. During development of the central nervous system, GFAP distinguishes astrocytes from other glial cells. It is involved in various cellular functions, such as cell structure and movement, cell communication and the functioning of the blood-brain barrier. It also plays a role in mitosis by adjusting the filament network present in the cell. May be used in conjunction with 214855 and G2037-05D for increased sensitivity when used in immunohistology.
