“…33 The mAb 5A5 stained WASP but not N-WASP on Western blots and did not cross-react with N-WASP. 33 The epitope recognized by 5A5 was localized to amino acids 146-265. WASP antibody W-485 was raised in rabbits immunized with amino acids 485-502 (C-terminus).…”

“…33,34 Cells were blocked with 5% normal goat serum (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA) and reacted with 10 g/mL WASP 5A5 mAb or mouse IgG2a for 20 minutes on ice and washed twice with PBS, 1% fetal calf serum, 0.1% sodium azide, followed by FITC-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG2a antibodies (10 g/mL) for 20 minutes on ice. Cells were washed and analyzed on FACSCalibur (Becton Dickinson) immediately.…”

Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) is in a complex with WASP-interacting protein (WIP). WASP levels, but not mRNA levels, were severely diminished in T cells from WIP −/− mice and were increased by introduction of WIP in these cells. The WASP binding domain of WIP was shown to protect WASP from degradation by calpain in vitro . Treatment with the proteasome inhibitors MG132 and bortezomib increased WASP levels in T cells from WIP −/− mice and in T and B lymphocytes from two WAS patients with missense mutations (R86H and T45M) that disrupt WIP binding. The calpain inhibitor calpeptin increased WASP levels in activated T and B cells from the WASP patients, but not in primary T cells from the patients or from WIP −/− mice. Despite its ability to increase WASP levels proteasome inhibition did not correct the impaired IL-2 gene expression and low F-actin content in T cells from the R86H WAS patient. These results demonstrate that WIP stabilizes WASP and suggest that it may also be important for its function.

“…For Western blotting, PBMC or NK cell preparations were lysed in 1% Nonidet P-40 lysis buffer and 20 g protein separated on a 10% polyacrylamide gel. Proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose membranes, which were incubated with murine anti-WASp mAb 5A5 (23). Bound antibody was detected with peroxidase-conjugated goat-anti-mouse (Jackson ImmunoResearch) and enhanced chemiluminescence detection system (Amersham Pharmacia).…”
