CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE COMPLEX FORMED BETWEEN THE CATALYTIC DOMAIN OF SHP-1 AND AN IN VITRO PEPTIDE SUBSTRATE PY469 DERIVED FROM SHPS-1.


OverviewOverview

The substrate specificity of the catalytic domain of SHP-1, an important regulator in the proliferation and development of hematopoietic cells, is critical for understanding the physiological functions of SHP-1. Here we report the crystal structures of the catalytic domain of SHP-1 complexed with two peptide substrates derived from SIRPalpha, a member of the signal-regulatory proteins. We show that the variable beta5-loop-beta6 motif confers SHP-1 substrate specificity at the P-4 and further N-terminal subpockets. We also observe a novel residue shift at P-2, the highly conserved subpocket in protein- tyrosine phosphatases. Our observations provide new insight into the substrate specificity of SHP-1.
