Transcription profiling of mouse fibroblasts derived from p130Cas exon 2-specific knockout mice.

ABSTRACT: p130Cas (Cas, Crk-associated substrate) is an adaptor molecule composed of an N-terminal Src homology 3 (SH3) domain, a substrate domain (SD), and a C-terminal Src binding domain (SBD). The SH3 domain of Cas has been shown to associate with various signaling molecules, including focal adhesion kinase (FAK), but its role in cellular function remains unclear. To address this issue, we established and analyzed primary fibroblasts derived from mice expressing a truncated Cas lacking the exon 2 encoding the SH3 domain (Cas exon 2∆/∆). In comparison to wild-type (Cas exon 2+/+) cells, Cas exon 2∆/∆ primary fibroblasts showed delayed migration in wound healing and reduced spreading on fibronectin (FN), which would be due to reduced complex formation of Cas exon 2∆/∆ with FAK and CrkII
