**Background of WASP Recombinant Protein**
The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP), encoded by the *WAS* gene, is a critical regulator of actin cytoskeleton dynamics in hematopoietic cells. It is primarily expressed in immune cells, including T lymphocytes, B cells, and platelets. WASP functions as a scaffold protein, linking upstream signaling molecules (e.g., CDC42. PIP2) to the actin-nucleating Arp2/3 complex, thereby driving actin polymerization and cytoskeletal reorganization. This activity is essential for immune cell functions such as migration, phagocytosis, immune synapse formation, and intracellular signaling.
Mutations in the *WAS* gene lead to Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS), an X-linked immunodeficiency disorder characterized by thrombocytopenia, eczema, recurrent infections, and increased susceptibility to autoimmunity and malignancies. WAS-associated mutations disrupt WASP’s structural domains (e.g., WH1. GTPase-binding, VCA regions), impairing its interaction with binding partners or its ability to activate the Arp2/3 complex.
Recombinant WASP proteins are engineered to study its molecular mechanisms, disease-related mutations, and therapeutic interventions. These proteins are typically produced in expression systems (e.g., *E. coli*, insect cells) and purified for *in vitro* assays, structural studies, or drug screening. For example, recombinant WASP variants help elucidate how specific mutations alter protein stability, interactions (e.g., with WIP, SH3-domain proteins), or actin polymerization capacity.
Additionally, recombinant WASP serves as a tool to develop targeted therapies, such as gene therapy vectors or small molecules to restore WASP function in WAS patients. Its applications extend to modeling cytoskeletal defects in immune disorders and cancer, where dysregulated actin dynamics contribute to pathogenesis. Overall, WASP recombinant proteins bridge molecular insights into cytoskeletal regulation with translational research aimed at treating WAS and related immunodeficiencies.
