Would it be appropriate to put this article into Category:transport proteins? Thanks, delldot | talk 07:24, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is "adaptor protein" synonymous with "signal transducing adaptor protein"?

I noticed that "adaptor protein" redirects to this article. Are all adaptor proteins classified as signal transducing adaptor proteins? Are there any other types of adaptor proteins with no corresponding Wikipedia article? Jarble (talk) 02:40, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Jarble: In answer to your questions, No and no/yes, but it was made as a redirect without content. I'm in the process of fixing this problem with a disambiguation page, Adaptor protein and will be composing Adaptor proteins, vesicular transport. You may want to look at AP2 adaptor complex which has some content about the sort of adaptor proteins I'm intersted in. BTW, I had a look at your user page. You are absolutely correct that wikipedia needs a better peer review system. JeanOhm (talk) 02:58, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Text in intro is copied verbatim from Nature article

See http://www.nature.com/onc/journal/v20/n44/full/1204769a.html (Oncogene (2001) 20, 6270-6272).

@Gilded Snail: and everybody else following this article. This sentence "Adaptor proteins contain a variety of protein-binding modules that link protein-binding partners together and facilitate the creation of larger signaling complexes" is the direct quote and was made by 203.87.156.11 on 23 January 2013. I'm a newcomer. What should be done about this?JeanOhm (talk) 03:17, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
