Gap-43 protein
Growth Associated Protein 43 also known as GAP43 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GAP43 gene.GAP43 has been termed a ‘growth’ or ‘plasticity’ protein because it […]
Recoverin
Recoverin is a 23 kilodalton (kDa) neuronal calcium-binding protein that is primarily detected in the photoreceptor cells of the eye. It plays a key role in the inhibition of rhodopsin […]
