WIPF1/WIP Overexpression Lysate

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.

WIPF1 is involved in the organization of the actin cytoskeleton. The protein binds to a region of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein that is frequently mutated in Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, an X-linked recessive disorder. Impairment of the interaction between these WIPF1 and Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein may contribute to the disease. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene. WIPF1 binds to Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein, profilin and actin. It is involved with NCK1 and GRB2 in the recruitment and activation of N-WASP and may be involved in regulating the subcellular localization of N-WASP, resulting in the disassembly of stress fibers in filopodia formation.
