The presynaptic, nervous tissue-specific phosphoprotein B-50 is present in infant and adult rat brain. In the present study we demonstrate that B-50 is a major phosphoprotein in nerve growth cones obtained from fetal rat brain. As this protein is an endogenous substrate for protein kinase C, an enzyme linked to cell growth and proliferation, a role for B-50 in nerve growth cone function is suggested.
