Background: Growth Associated Protein-43 (GAP-43), also known as nerve growth-related growth peptide GAP43, shares a high degree of homology between the sequence of the human gene and the rat gene. GAP-43 is considered a crucial component of an effective regenerative response in the nervous system. Somatic cell hybrids demonstrate localization of the GAP-43 gene to human chromosome 3 and to mouse chromosome 16. GAP-43 has been termed a growth or plasticity protein because it is expressed at high levels in neuronal growth cones during development and during axonal regeneration. GAP-43 regulates growth of axons and modulates the formation of new connections.

Immunogen: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human GAP43, different from the related mouse and rat sequences by one amino acid.

Clonality: Polyclonal

Contents: Each vial contains antibody formulated with stabilizing components, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4, 0.05mg Thimerosal, 0.05mg NaN3.
*This antibody is supplied in a stabilized formulation. Compatibility with conjugation reactions depends on the chemistry of the conjugation method used. For conjugation methods that are not compatible with the stabilizing components present in this formulation, a carrier-free antibody format is required.

Purification: Immunogen affinity purified.

Reconstitution: Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.
