CD16 or ITGB2 (CD18) stimulation resulted in the induction of WASp tyrosine phosphorylation in NK cells,
probubly by Fyn. Fyn enhanced WASp-mediated Arp2/3 activation and was required for synapse formation in T cells.
PMID:12177428
NK cell cytotoxicity was deficient in WAS patients and WASp catalyzes actin polymerization.
It binds actin monomers as well as the actin-related protein (ARP) 2/3 complex to catalyze branching of filamentous actin (F-actin)

WIPF1 forms complex with WASP.

t Cdc42 is essential for the activation of WASP and N-WASP, leading to actin assembly and phagocytic cup formation by macrophages during Fc(gamma)R-mediated phagocytosis.
Cdc42 Is Required for Activation and Tyrosine Phosphorylation of WASP/N-WASP

Arp2/3 complex is intrinsically inactive, relying on nucleation promoting factors for activation. WASp/Scar family proteins are prominent cellular nucleation promoting factors. They bring together an actin monomer and Arp2/3 complex in solution or on the side of an existing actin filament to initiate a new filament that grows in the barbed end direction.
