EFS
Description
The EFS (embryonal Fyn-associated substrate) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 14.
EFS may refer to: Embryonal Fyn-associated substrate (hEFS), also known as Cas scaffolding protein family member 3.
EFS acts as a docking protein, coordinating tyrosine kinase signaling pathways crucial for cell adhesion. It can activate SRC, a key signaling molecule, and acts as a downstream effector in these pathways. EFS interacts with various proteins, including FYN (via its SH3 domain) and CRK, SRC, and YES, indicating its involvement in complex signaling networks.
EFS is also known as CAS3, CASS3, EFS1, EFS2, HEFS, SIN.
