title: A new flavor in phosphotyrosine recognition.
abstract: The phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain, recently identified in a number of proteins, specifically recognizes tyrosine-phosphorylated sequences in other proteins. Although similar in function to the well-studied SH2 domain, the PTB domain appears to be structurally unrelated.
