Biological function summary
GAP43 plays an important role in neurite outgrowth and synaptic plasticity. It functions as an important mediator of signal transduction in neurons. GAP43 does not act alone but integrates into a network of signaling pathways that guide axonal elongation and branching. It works closely with cytoskeletal elements influencing the structural dynamics needed for effective neuronal response and adaptation.
Pathways
GAP43 is vital in the regulation of the protein kinase C pathway and the cAMP pathway both essential for neuronal growth and differentiation. It closely interacts with proteins such as calmodulin which binds to GAP43 and impacts its function in those pathways. These interactions highlight its role in the modulation of neuronal growth and synaptic plasticity making it essential for neurons' response to environmental signals.

General info
Function
This protein is associated with nerve growth. It is a major component of the motile 'growth cones' that form the tips of elongating axons. Plays a role in axonal and dendritic filopodia induction.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the neuromodulin family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated (By similarity). Phosphorylation of this protein by a protein kinase C is specifically correlated with certain forms of synaptic plasticity (By similarity).. Palmitoylated by ZDHHC3 (By similarity). Palmitoylation is regulated by ARF6 and is essential for plasma membrane association and axonal and dendritic filopodia induction (PubMed:14978216). Deacylated by LYPLA2 (PubMed:21152083).
