Gap-43 protein
text:
Growth Associated Protein 43 (GAP43) is a protein encoded by the GAP43 gene in humans. GAP43 is called a "growth" or "plasticity" protein because it is expressed at high levels in neuronal growth cones during development and axonal regeneration, and it is phosphorylated after long-term potentiation and after learning. GAP43 is a crucial component of the axon and presynaptic terminal. Its null mutation leads to death within days after birth, due to axon pathfinding defects.
