Question
Chapter 14, Problem 2P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Whether SH2 domains bind phosphoserine and phosphothreonine with high affinity or not needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
SH2 is a type of structurally conserved protein which is contained within the Src onco protein and is also present in the signal transducing protein. It is a protein domain of around 100 protein residues.

What is the function of these domains? (a) Bind DNA, (b) Phosphorylate proteins, (c) Phosphatase proteins, (d) Bind proteins, (e) Bind phosphatidylinositol. I note that PH domain interacts with 3’phosphoinositides, contributing to recruitment of AKT to the plasma membrane, thus thinking of the possible answer (e) which is phosphatidylinositol (ie. PI) of a family of lipids consisting PIP3 or PIP2 etc. However, I wonder if “3’phosphoinositides” is the same as “PIP3”.As an alternative, I note that PH domain is a protein domain that occurs in a wide range of proteins involved in intracellular signaling, I tend to choose (d) as an answer also.I should be grateful for receiving your expert advice as to which (a) to (e) is the best answer.arrow_forwardd) Alcohols usually don't behave as a weak acids, but tyrosine does.

- Receptor tyrosine kinases such as the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor can basically be broken down into three domains: (1) An extracellular, ligand binding domain, (2) A transmembrane domain that must cross through the cell membrane, and (3) an intracellular domain. Match the amino acid with the domain that it would MOST LIKELY be associated with. Lysine (choose (1), (2), or (3) from above) A tyrosine residue capable of being phosphorylated on its hydroxyl group (choose (1), (2), or (3) from above) Isoleucine (choose (1), (2), or (3) from above)arrow_forwardLigand binding to proteins may occur with varying strengths; some ligands bind tightly to proteins while others bind less tightly. The strengths of reversible binding are determined experimentally by varying concentrations of ligands, and measuring the saturation of the protein in the various ligand concentrations. One such laboratory study investigated the binding of a hormone to three different receptor proteins in the cell membrane. The data collected are shown in the table below: 1) Provide a brief explanation as to why ligand binding to proteins must be a reversible process. 2) Calculate the dissociation constant (Kd) for the hormone binding to each of the three proteins.arrow_forwardSome hormone-signaling pathways result in the phosphorylation of tyrosine resides in proteins.
