Characterization of molecular differences between WASP and N-WASP and characterization of mutations causing Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome

Wiskott-aldrich Syndrome is caused by mutation in gene encodes WASP. WASP and its homologue N-WASP regulate actin cytoskeleton reorganization, share more than 50% sequence identity. Knocking down of WASP expression impaired Jurkat T-cells chemotaxis towards SDF-1α and increased adhesion to fibronect...
