Target
Function:
GFAP, a class-III intermediate filament, is a cell-specific marker that, during the development of the central nervous system, distinguishes astrocytes from other glial cells.
Tissue Specificity:
Expressed in the cortex and hippocampus. Expression decreases following acute and chronic corticosterone treatment.
Sequence Similarities:
Belongs to the intermediate filament family.
Post-Translational Modification:
Phosphorylated by PKN1.
Cellular Location:
Cytoplasm.
Associated with intermediate filaments.
