WASHC2C Gene Summary [Human]
Enables phosphatidylinositol phosphate binding activity; phosphatidylinositol-3,4-bisphosphate binding activity; and retromer complex binding activity. Involved in several processes, including endosomal transport; negative regulation of barbed-end actin filament capping; and regulation of substrate adhesion-dependent cell spreading. Located in cytosol; early endosome; and nucleolus. Part of WASH complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human WASHC2C often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
