Our WASH rabbit polyclonal primary antibody from PhosphoSolutions is produced in-house. It detects chicken, human, mouse, and rat WASH and is antigen affinity purified. It is great for use in WB, ICC.
Immunocytochemical labeling of WASH relative to F-actin in chick DRG neurons. The cells were labeled with rabbit polyclonal WASH (C-terminal region) antibody (WP4001), then the antibody was detected using appropriate secondary antibody (Green). On the left, this WASH labeling is compared to F-actin staining (Red). (Image provided by Dr. Gianluca Gallo at Drexel University).
The Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) family functions downstream of Rho GTPases to mediate the branched-actin network formation required for cytoskeletal remodeling, intracellular transport, and cell motility. This family includes WASP, N-WASP, and three WAVE/SCAR isoforms (WAVE1, 2, and 3). Two new WASP subfamilies are WASH and WHAMM. WASH is an F-actin binding protein that can promote Arp2/3-mediated branch actin nucleation. The WASH protein contains two WASH homology domains, a proline-rich region, and a C-terminal VCA domain. WASH can interact with dynamin, FAM21, and tubulin, and WASH activity may be regulated downstream of Rho GTPases. WASH interaction with FAM21 has been implicated in endosome sorting, and inactivation of WASH leads to endosome tubulation. Thus, WASH may be a critical element in the regulation of the actin filament and microtubule networks that mediate endosomal sorting and fission.

WASH synthetic peptide (coupled to carrier protein) corresponds to amino acids in the C-terminal region of human WASH. This sequence is highly conserved in rat, mouse, and chicken WASH, and has low homology to other WASP family members.
