WASHC1 - WASH complex subunit 1 Gene

Also Known as WASH; WASH1; FAM39E

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 100287171

Summary

Enables alpha-tubulin binding activity and ubiquitin protein Ligase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including Arp2/3 complex-mediated Actin nucleation; endosomal transport; and positive regulation of pseudopodium assembly. Located in several cellular components, including endosome; exocyst; and lamellipodium. Part of WASH complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
Ubiquitous expression in skin (RPKM 16.3), spleen (RPKM 13.7) and 25 other tissues.
