Modulation of the pattern of axonal projections of a leech motor neuron by ablation or transplantation of its target

Growth-associated protein, GAP-43, a polypeptide that is induced when neurons extend axons, is a component of growth cones and corresponds to pp46, a major polypeptide of a subcellular fraction enriched in growth cones.
