Gene: WASF3

Alternate names for this Gene: Brush-1|SCAR3|WAVE3

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein family. The gene product is a protein that forms a multiprotein complex that links receptor kinases and actin. Binding to actin occurs through a C-terminal verprolin homology domain in all family members. The multiprotein complex serves to tranduce signals that involve changes in cell shape, motility or function. A pseudogene of this gene have been defined on chromosome 6. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants

Gene is located in Chromosome: 13

Location in Chromosome : 13q12.13

Description of this Gene: WASP family member 3

Type of Gene: protein-coding
