Richard McFarland asked > Does anyoen know if a antibody to Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome Protein (WASP) > is commercially ( or non-commercially) available? Richard, I would suggest a look to the following paper : D.M. Stewart et al.,(1996) Studies of the expression of the Wiscott-Aldrich Syndrome protein., J. Clin. Invest., 97:2627-34. WAS can also be investigated using quantitative flow cytometry on platelets. In case you are interested in WASP, platelets and X-linked thrombocytopenia (XLT), an other WAS disorder characterized by small platelet size, I suggest you have a look to an interesting study of XLT presented at the last I.S.T.H. meeting in Washington : N Schlegel, M-F Hurtaud-Roux, O Fenneteau, C Kaplan. Is X-linked thrombocytopenia (XLT) a pure platelet variant of WAS ? Hope that helps. Philippe Poncelet Director,R&D BioCytex Marseille, France
