Entrez Gene summary for WAS:
The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) family of proteins share similar domain structure, and are involved in transduction
of signals from receptors on the cell surface to the actin cytoskeleton. The presence of a number of different motifs
suggests that they are regulated by a number of different stimuli, and interact with multiple proteins. Recent studies
have demonstrated that these proteins, directly or indirectly, associate with the small GTPase, Cdc42, known to
regulate formation of actin filaments, and the cytoskeletal organizing complex, Arp2/3. Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome is a
rare, inherited, X-linked, recessive disease characterized by immune dysregulation and microthrombocytopenia, and is
caused by mutations in the WAS gene. The WAS gene product is a cytoplasmic protein, expressed exclusively in
hematopoietic cells, which show signalling and cytoskeletal abnormalities in WAS patients. A transcript variant
arising as a result of alternative promoter usage, and containing a different 5' UTR sequence, has been described,
however, its full-length nature is not known. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: WASP_HUMAN, P42768
Function: Effector protein for Rho-type GTPases. Regulates actin filament reorganization via its interaction with the
Arp2/3 complex. Important for efficient actin polymerization. Possible regulator of lymphocyte and platelet function.
Mediates actin filament reorganization and the formation of actin pedestals upon infection by pathogenic bacteria

  • Defects in WAS are the cause of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) [MIM:301000]; also known as
  • eczema-thrombocytopenia-immunodeficiency syndrome. WAS is an X-linked recessive immunodeficiency characterized by
    eczema, thrombocytopenia, recurrent infections, and bloody diarrhea. Death usually occurs before age 10
  • Defects in WAS are the cause of thrombocytopenia type 1 (THC1) [MIM:313900]. Thrombocytopenia is defined by a
  • decrease in the number of platelets in circulating blood, resulting in the potential for increased bleeding and
    decreased ability for clotting
  • Defects in WAS are a cause of neutropenia severe congenital X-linked (XLN) [MIM:300299]. XLN is an
  • immunodeficiency syndrome characterized by recurrent major bacterial infections, severe congenital neutropenia, and
    monocytopenia
