Description: This gene encodes one of the major intermediate filament proteins of mature astrocytes. It is used as a marker to distinguish astrocytes from other glial cells during development. Mutations in this gene cause Alexander disease, a rare disorder of astrocytes in the central nervous system. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

Immunogen: This astocyte marker GFAP antibody was produced from a mouse immunized with GFAP recombinant protein.

Storage: Can be stored for one month at 4oC. For long-term storage, aliquot the GFAP antibody and store frozen at -20 °C or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
