Gene Information

General description

WASH complex subunit 1 (WASHC1) is located on human chromosome 9p24.3. It belongs to Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome Protein and SCAR Homolog (WASH) family. WASHC1 protein has an actin binding domain.

Immunogen

WASH complex subunit 1 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-WASHC1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used:
  • in the detection of WASH complex in Dictyostelium cells by immunofluorescence imaging.
  • in the detection of WASH proteins in HeLa cells using confocal microscopy.
  • in western blotting for the detection of WASH1 complexes in human leukemic Jurkat T cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

WASH exists as multiple complex protein in HeLa and bovine cells. WASH proteins coordinate the migration of endosomal α5β1 integrin. WASHC1 protein regulates actin cytoskeleton organisation. WASH1 protein is regarded as actin-nucleating promoting factor. WASH protein complex interacts with actin related protein, Arp2/3 and mediates actin networking.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
