WIP (WASP interacting protein) together with N-WASP (neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein) regulates actin polymerization that is crucial for invadopodia and filopodia formation. Recently, we reported the WIP interaction with ITSN1 which is highly implicated in endo-/exocytosis, apoptosis, mitogenic signaling and cytoskeleton rearrangements. Here we demonstrate that the WIP/ITSN1 complex is involved in the transferrin receptor recycling and partially co-localizes with a marker of the fast recycling endosomes, RAB4. Moreover, ITSN1 recruits WIP to RAB4-positive vesicles upon overexpression. Our data indicate that WIP enhances the interaction of N-WASP with ITSN1 and promotes ITSN1/β-actin association. Moreover, the WIP/ITSN1-L complex facilitates formation of filopodia-like protrusions in MCF-7 cells. Thus, WIP/ITSN1 complex is involved in the cellular vesicle trafficking and actin-dependent membrane processes.
