    basic FUNCTION
  • involved in signal transduction
  • may play a central coordinating role for tyrosine_kinase_based signaling related to cell adhesion
  • may serve as an activator of SRC and a downstream effector
  • act as scaffolds to regulate protein complexes controlling migration and chemotaxis, apoptosis, cell cycle, and differentiation, and is linked to a role in progenitor cell function
  • important role for Cas proteins in cell-cell adhesion signaling in development
