| Immunogen Sequence: | Human |
| Specificity: | This antibody detects a 65 kDa* protein corresponding to the molecular mass of N-WASP on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of neonatal rat brain lysate. It is also detects 65 kDa* proteins in A431, human endothelial, and SKN-SH cells. It does not recognize the 63 |
| Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylation at Ser-242, Tyr-256, Ser-484 and Ser-485 enhances actin polymerization activity. |
| Function | Regulates actin polymerization by stimulating the actin-nucleating activity of the Arp2/3 complex. Involved in various processes, such as mitosis and cytokinesis, via its role in the regulation of actin polymerization. Together with CDC42, involved in the extension and maintenance of the formation of thin, actin-rich surface projections called filopodia. 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. Binds to HSF1/HSTF1 and forms a complex on heat shock promoter elements (HSE) that negatively regulates HSP90 expression. Plays a role in dendrite spine morphogenesis. Decreasing levels of DNMBP (using antisense RNA) alters apical junction morphology in cultured enterocytes, junctions curve instead of being nearly linear. |
