Ett för nervvävnad specifikt protein som produceras i hög takt i nervceller under utvecklings- och återuppbyggnadsfaser. Det har betydelse för nervcellsutväxter, ihållande potentiering, signalöverföring och signalsubstansfrisättning. Proteinet utgör även ett substrat för proteinkinas C.
A nervous tissue specific protein which is highly expressed in NEURONS during development and NERVE REGENERATION. It has been implicated in neurite outgrowth, long-term potentiation, SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION, and NEUROTRANSMITTER release. (From Neurotoxicology 1994;15(1):41-7) It is also a substrate of PROTEIN KINASE C.
