GFAP encodes one of the major intermediate filament proteins of mature astrocytes.
It is used as a marker to distinguish astrocytes from other glial cells during development.
Mutations in this gene cause Alexander disease, a rare disorder of astrocytes in the central nervous system.
Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.
