Intracellular Flow Cytometry analysis of K562 (human chronic myelogenous leukemia) cells labeling N WASP with purified ab126626 at 1/150 (red). Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilised with 90% methanol. A Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluorr® 488) (ab150077)was used as the secondary antibody. Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control (ab172730) (Black) was used as the isotype control, cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Blue) were used as the unlabeled control.

Supplementary information

The protein N-WASP also known as neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein plays an important role in actin cytoskeleton dynamics. It weighs about 65 kDa and is widely expressed in diverse tissues but shows higher expression levels in the brain. In its mechanical function N-WASP regulates the polymerization of actin by activating the Arp2/3 complex. Through these interactions it helps in the formation of branched actin networks which are essential for cellular movement and shape.
Biological function summary

N-WASP functions are critical in cell signaling endocytosis and neurite extension. N-WASP often acts within a complex and interacts with various proteins like Cdc42 to transmit signals from cell surface to the actin cytoskeleton. These activities position N-WASP as a fundamental component for cellular architecture and mobility impacting processes like immune response and neuronal development. Its interaction with Arp2/3 contributes to dynamic changes in cell movement and shape.

Pathways

N-WASP plays a role in Rac and Cdc42 signaling pathways important for actin reorganization. Within these pathways it interacts with proteins such as Rho family GTPases influencing cytoskeletal arrangements. The proper functioning of these pathways is vital for numerous cellular processes including the migration of cells which affects tissue development and repair.

Alterations in N-WASP are linked to immunodeficiencies and neurological disorders. Mutations or dysfunction in N-WASP can lead to Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome characterized by immune defects and eczema due to its role in immune cell signaling. Additionally N-WASP's interaction with proteins such as WASP contributes to its involvement in neurodevelopmental disorders like autistic spectrum disorders reflecting the importance of this protein in maintaining normal cellular function.

Target data

Regulates actin polymerization by stimulating the actin-nucleating activity of the Arp2/3 complex (PubMed : 16767080, PubMed : 19366662, PubMed : 19487689, PubMed : 22847007, PubMed : 22921828, PubMed : 9422512). Involved in various processes, such as mitosis and cytokinesis, via its role in the regulation of actin polymerization (PubMed : 19366662, PubMed : 19487689, PubMed : 22847007, PubMed : 22921828, PubMed : 9422512). Together with CDC42, involved in the extension and maintenance of the formation of thin, actin-rich surface projections called filopodia (PubMed : 9422512). In addition to its role in the cytoplasm, also plays a role in the nucleus by regulating gene transcription, probably by promoting nuclear actin polymerization (PubMed : 16767080). Binds to HSF1/HSTF1 and forms a complex on heat shock promoter elements (HSE) that negatively regulates HSP90 expression (By similarity). Plays a role in dendrite spine morphogenesis (By similarity). Decreasing levels of DNMBP (using antisense RNA) alters apical junction morphology in cultured enterocytes, junctions curve instead of being nearly linear (PubMed : 19767742).
