WASF2
Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein family member 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WASF2 gene.[5]
This gene encodes a member of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein family. The gene product is a protein that forms a multiprotein complex that links receptor kinases and actin. Binding to actin occurs through a C-terminal verprolin homology domain in all family members. The multiprotein complex serves to tranduce signals that involve changes in cell shape, motility or function. The published map location[6] has been changed based on recent genomic sequence comparisons, which indicate that the expressed gene is located on chromosome 1, and a pseudogene may be located on chromosome X.[7]
Interactions
WASF2 has been shown to interact with BAIAP2.[8]
