Summary
WASHC2C (WASH complex subunit 2C, HGNC:23414) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 10q11.22, encoding WASH complex subunit 2C (Q9Y4E1). Acts as a component of the WASH core complex that functions as a nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) at the surface of endosomes, where it recruits and activates the Arp2/3 complex to induce actin polymerization, playing a key role in the fission of tubules that serve as transport…. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 56.9% of cell lines).
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 protein localization to endosome. Located in cytosol; early endosome; and nucleolus. Part of WASH complex.

Function. Acts as a component of the WASH core complex that functions as a nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) at the surface of endosomes, where it recruits and activates the Arp2/3 complex to induce actin polymerization, playing a key role in the fission of tubules that serve as transport intermediates during endosome sorting. Mediates the recruitment of the WASH core complex to endosome membranes via binding to phospholipids and VPS35 of the retromer CSC. Mediates the recruitment of the F-actin-capping protein dimer to the WASH core complex probably promoting localized F-actin polymerization needed for vesicle scission. Via its C-terminus binds various phospholipids, most strongly phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns-(4)P), phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphate (PtdIns-(5)P) and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns-(3,5)P2). Involved in the endosome-to-plasma membrane trafficking and recycling of SNX27-retromer-dependent cargo proteins, such as GLUT1. Required for the association of DNAJC13, ENTR1, ANKRD50 with retromer CSC subunit VPS35. Required for the endosomal recruitment of CCC and retriever complexes subunits COMMD1 and CCDC93 as well as the retrievere complex subunit VPS35L. (Microbial infection) Plays a role in fluid-phase endocytosis, a process exploited by vaccinia intracellular mature virus (IMV) to enter cells. As a result, may facilitate the penetration of IMV into cells.
Subunit / interactions. Component of the WASH core complex also described as WASH regulatory complex (SHRC) composed of WASH (WASHC1, WASH2P or WASH3P), WASHC2 (WASHC2A or WASHC2C), WASHC3, WASHC4 and WASHC5; in the complex interacts (via N-terminus) directly with WASHC1. The WASH core complex associates via WASHC2 with the F-actin-capping protein dimer (formed by CAPZA1, CAPZA2 or CAPZA3 and CAPZB) in a transient or substoichiometric manner which was initially described as WASH complex. Interacts with VPS35; mediates the association with the retromer CSC complex. Interacts with FKBP15. Interacts with CCDC93, CCDC22, VPS35L; indicative for an association of the WASH core complex with the CCC and retriever complexes. May directly interact with TBC1D23.
Subcellular location. Early endosome membrane. Cell membrane.
Domain organisation. The LFa (leucine-phenylalanine-acidic) motif bind directly to VPS35 of retromer CSC; adjacent motifs can act cooperatively to bind multiple CSCs, although there is significant variability in the affinities of different motifs for retromer.
Miscellaneous. In human, WASHC2 has undergone evolutionary duplication, with 2 highly homologous family members WASHC2A and WASHC2C.
Similarity. Belongs to the FAM21 family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 48 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
