Name
WAS/WASL interacting protein family member 2
Type
protein-coding
Aliases
WICH, WIRE

This gene encodes a WASP interacting protein (WIP)-related protein. It has been shown that this protein has a role in the WASP-mediated organization of the actin cytoskeleton and that this protein is a potential link between the activated platelet-derived growth factor receptor and the actin polymerization machinery.
