Comment |
FUNCTION:Acts as a nucleation-promoting factor at the surface of endosomes, where it recruits and activates the Arp2/3 complex to induce actin polymerization, playing a key role in the fission of tubules that serve as transport intermediates during endosome sorting (By similarity).||SUBUNIT:Component of the WASH complex, composed of F-actin- capping protein subunit alpha (CAPZA1, CAPZA2 or CAPZA3), F-actin- capping protein subunit beta (CAPZB), WASH (WASH1, WASH2P, WASH3P, WASH4P or WASH6P), FAM21 (FAM21A, FAM21B or FAM21C), KIAA1033, KIAA0196 and CCDC53. Interacts (via WHD1 region) with FAM21C; the interaction is direct (By similarity).||SUBCELLULAR LOCATION:Early endosome membrane (By similarity). Recycling endosome membrane (By similarity). Note=Localization to the endodome membrane is mediated via its interaction with FAM21 (By similarity).||MISCELLANEOUS:WASH genes duplicated to multiple chromosomal ends during primate evolution, with highest copy number reached in humans, whose W |
