| - | '''Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein''' (WASP) is involved in nucleating of new F-actin. In the autoinhibited form of WASP a region of the N-terminal interacts with a region of its C-terminal. This interaction is disrupted by CDC42 and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) resulting in the active WASP. '''N-WASP''' (Neural WASP) belongs to the WASP family of proteins. Human N-WASP stimulates the actin-nucleating activity. N-WASP induces actin polymerization in the Shigella bacterium. This bacterium causes dysentery. | + | '''Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein''' (WASP) is involved in nucleating of new F-actin.

This interaction is disrupted by CDC42 and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) resulting in the active WASP. WASP domains include '''EVH1''' domain in the N-terminal which bind proline-rich sequences in the WASP-interacting proteins; '''WH2''' domain is ca. 18 residues long and interacts with actin; '''CRIB or GTPase-binding''' domain which interacts with CDC42.
