Signal transducing adaptor protein
TYPE OF PROTEIN INVOLVED IN CELL SIGNALLING
Adaptor proteins, signal transducing; Adaptor molecules; Adapter molecule; Adaptor molecule
Signal transducing adaptor proteins (STAPs) are proteins that are accessory to main proteins in a signal transduction pathway. Adaptor proteins contain a variety of protein-binding modules that link protein-binding partners together and facilitate the creation of larger signaling complexes.
