OBSOLETE. Interacting selectively and non-covalently and simultaneously with one or more signal transduction molecules, usually acting as a scaffold to bring these molecules into close proximity either using their own SH2/SH3 domains (e.g. Grb2) or those of their target molecules (e.g. SAM68).

Comment
This term was obsoleted because molecular adaptors should be represented by the type of molecules they serve to adapt, and not by their domains.
