(= GAPs)
Group of developmentally regulated polypeptides thought to be critical for the formation of neural circuitry. The acidic
membrane phosphoprotein GAP-43 is synthesized and transported down regenerating and developing axons;
pp46 localized in
growth cone membranes during embryogenesis; B-50 in mature presynaptic membranes in the regulation of phosphotidylinositol turnover and
F1 in the
hippocampus during
long-term potentiation, are now all known to be the same protein.
