Abstract

The Src homology domains SH2 and SH3 are modular components present in many signal transduction proteins. They allow rapid formation of stable protein complexes and may also regulate protein function through intramolecular binding events. SH2 domains recognize phosphotyrosyl residues in a specific sequence context, while SH3 domains recognize a PxxP motif and additional residues that mediate binding specificity.

      This feature is commonly found in proteins that are targeted to lipid rafts (38). The intracellular sequence of chB6 contains conserved proline residues typical of SH3-domain binding sites that are found in signal-transducing receptors (39). Within the extracellular region, our analysis detected the presence of two immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains (Fig. 6A).

      Of the other 12 mutants analyzed, mutant P1039S was also not able to reduce pAKT(S473) in Jurkat cells, even though this mutant showed a normal specific activity. Interestingly, the mutation P1039S is localized in a PXXP motif which is the consensus sequence for the binding of SH3 domains [41]. Therefore, we postulate that the P1039XXP motif in SHIP1 is part of a binding site for a protein with an SH3 domain.
