WAVE1 Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein family member 1; WASP family protein member 1; Protein WAVE-1; Verprolin homology domain-containing protein 1; WASF1; KIAA0269, SCAR1, WAVE1

Downstream effector molecule involved in the transmission of signals from tyrosine kinase receptors and small GTPases to the actin cytoskeleton. Promotes formation of actin filaments. Part of the WAVE complex that regulates lamellipodia formation. The WAVE complex regulates actin filament reorganization via its interaction with the Arp2/3 complex (By similarity) . As component of the WAVE1 complex, required for BDNF- NTRK2 endocytic trafficking and signaling from early endosomes (By similarity) .

Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell junction, synapse. Cell junction, focal adhesion. Dot-like pattern in the cytoplasm. Concentrated in Rac-regulated membrane-ruffling areas (PubMed:9889097) . Partial translocation to focal adhesion sites might be mediated by interaction with SORBS2 (PubMed:18559503) . In neurons, colocalizes with activated NTRK2 after BDNF addition in endocytic sites through the association with TMEM108 (By similarity) .
