A group of 12 Src homology (SH) 3 domains from eight human proteins (Swiss-Prot ID: SRC, PLCG1, P85A, NCK1, GRB2, FYN, CRK) were used to screen a peptide target array composed of 1536 potential ligands, which led to the identification of 921 binary interactions between these proteins and 284 targets. To assess the efficiency of the peptide array target screening (PATS) method in identifying authentic protein–protein interactions, we exam- ined a set of interactions mediated by the PLCg1 SH3 domain by coimmunoprecipitation and/or affinity pull-downs using full-length proteins and achieved a 75% success rate. Furthermore, we characterized a novel interaction between PLCg1 and hematopoietic progenitor kinase 1 (HPK1) identified by PATS and demonstrated that the PLCg1 SH3 domain negatively regulated HPK1 kinase activity. Compared to protein interactions listed in the online predicted human interaction protein database (OPHID), the majority of interactions identified by PATS are novel, suggesting that, when extended to the large number of peptide interaction domains encoded by the human genome, PATS should aid in the mapping of the human interactome.

Abstract: Signal transduction, the ability of cells to perceive information from the surroundings and alter behavior in response, is an essential property of life. Studies on tyrosine kinase action fundamentally changed our concept of cellular regulation. The induced assembly of subcellular hubs via the recognition of local protein or lipid modifications by modular protein interactions is now a central paradigm in signaling. Such molecular interactions are mediated by specific protein interaction domains. The first such domain identified was the SH2 domain, which was postulated to be a reader capable of finding and binding protein partners displaying phosphorylated tyrosine side chains. The SH3 domain was found to be involved in the formation of stable protein sub-complexes by constitutively attaching to proline-rich surfaces on its binding partners. The SH2 and SH3 domains have thus served as the prototypes for a diverse collection of interaction domains that recognize not only proteins but also lipids, nucleic acids, and small molecules.

In turn, aberrant activation of PLC-g1 and PLC-g2 is implicated in inflammation, autoimmunity, and cancer. Although structures of isolated domains from PLC-g isozymes are available, these structures are insufficient to define how release of basal autoinhibition is coupled to phosphorylation-dependent enzyme activation. Here, we describe the first high-resolution structure of a full-length PLC-g isozyme and use it to underpin a detailed model of their membrane-dependent regulation. Notably, an interlinked set of regulatory domains integrates basal autoinhibition, tyrosine kinase engagement, and additional scaffolding functions with the phosphorylation-dependent, allosteric control of phospholipase activation.
