Andy,
Suggest you include a number of anitbodies made against the neuronal
growth associated protein GAP-43. Versions have been made that
identify the phospho, de-phospho, and either form of the protein.
Boehringer Mannheim currently sells some of them and I think the
original clones came from work done by Pate Skene. Larry Benowitz
also has done a lot of work developing antibodies against this
protein as well. Definitely be interested in receiving a copy of
your list when you get it compiled. Good luck in your endeavor!
Thanks
