Crystal structure of the phosphotyrosine recognition domain SH2 of the Src oncogene product complexed with tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides.
SH2 domains are protein modules specialized in recognizing phosphorylated tyrosine residues and their sequence contexts. The mechanism of phosphotyrosine recognition and context recognition was elucidated in a series of X-ray crystallographic experiments which are discussed below.
