GFAP (Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein) (Cy3)

Antibodies / Antibodies-Growth Factors, Cytokines

-20°C

Supplied as a liquid in PBS, 15mg/ml BSA, 0.09% sodium azide. Labeled with Cy3.

Purified glial filament protein. Species sequence homology: human, rat, porcine, and chicken (100%).

Glial fibrillary acidic protein is a class-III intermediate filament. GFAP is the main constituent of intermediate filaments in astrocytes and serves as a cell specific marker that distinguishes differentiated astrocytes from other glial cells during the development of the central nervous system.
