Processes regulated enzymes by intramolecular interactions, increasing the by SH3 domains also raise important questions about the local concentration or altering the subcellular localization nature of specificity and the overall logic governing of components of signaling pathways, and mediating the networks of protein interactions. assembly of large multiprotein complexes. SH3 domains and their binding sites have cropped up in many hundreds of proteins in species from yeast to man, which suggests Key words: Protein-protein interaction, Modular binding domains, that they provide the cell with an especially handy and Signal transduction Introduction tyrosine kinases, the Crk adaptor protein, and phospholipase The idea that specific protein-protein interactions govern many C-γ (Mayer et al., 1988; Stahl et al., 1988).

Indeed, given the unrelenting attention to al., 1999)). Because the small size of the module seemed to such a modest domain, it seems hard to imagine that there preclude enzymatic activity, the search for function naturally could be much left to uncover. I will argue that, to the contrary, focused on potential protein interactions, and screening of SH3 domains actually serve to remind us just how much expression libraries using isolated SH3 domains soon remains to be learned. In fact their very omnipresence is one identified seemingly specific binding partners (Cicchetti et al., source of conceptual trouble - how can the cell reap meaningful 1992). information from networks based on such a common module, Early studies indicated that the region bound by SH3 whose affinity and selectivity is modest at best? Because SH3 domains is in all cases proline-rich and identified PxxP as a domains play a role in so many of the processes of interest to core conserved binding motif (Ren et al., 1993).

Here, I very briefly specifics of binding in great detail (recently reviewed by Kay sketch out the general properties of SH3 domains, spend et al., 2000). What is clear is that the surface of the SH3 domain considerable time on recent advances in understanding the bears a relatively flat, hydrophobic ligand-binding surface, determinants of binding specificity (or lack of specificity) and which consists of three shallow pockets or grooves defined by its significance, and go on to discuss two specific recent conserved aromatic residues (Fig. 1). The ligand adopts an examples in which these domains appear to play complex and extended, left-handed helical conformation termed the varied roles in important biological processes. polyproline-2 (or PPII) helix. The PPII helix has three residues per turn; this means it is roughly triangular in cross-section, and the base of this triangle sits on the surface of the SH3 A brief history domain. Two of the three ligand-binding pockets of the SH3 SH3 domains were first noted as regions of sequence similarity domain are occupied by two hydrophobic-proline (ΦP) between divergent signaling proteins such as the Src family of dipeptides in register on two adjacent turns of the helix, 1254 JOURNAL OF CELL SCIENCE 114 (7) A B C RT Class I ligand loop P P R Cα R N X X N Cα δ Cβ C X X n-Src loop C Class I N Class II ligand RT loop Cα X X R N X X R N Cα Cδ Cβ P P n-Src loop N Class II C Fig. 1. Interaction of SH3 domains with their ligands. (A) Binding of class I (top) and class II (bottom) ligands to the surface of the SH3 domain is depicted diagrammatically. The specificity pocket that typically interacts with an arginine residue in the ligand is to the right, the two Φ-P pockets to the left. The orientation of the ligand is indicated beneath each diagram. Approximate positions of the variable RT and N-Src loops of the SH3 domain are indicated. (B) The Src SH3 domain bound to class I (top) and class II (bottom) ligands (adapted from Feng et al., 1994). The surface of the SH3 domain was rendered with the program GRASP; ligands are represented in stick format. The overall view corresponds to the diagram in A. (C) Schematic view of an X-P dipeptide of a class I (top) or class II (bottom) ligand on the surface of an SH3 domain (adapted from Nguyen et al., 1998). The view is down the axis of the PPII helix of the ligand from the perspective of the specificity pocket of the SH3 domain. The surface of the SH3 domain is represented in green, and the portions of the X-P dipeptide that contact the surface are represented in red. Note that the majority of the proline ring is not in contact with the surface of the SH3 domain and that it is the Cδ atom of the proline ring (the atom directly bound to the main-chain nitrogen atom) that is in closest contact with the SH3 surface: N-substitution is thus the main feature recognized by SH3 domains. Note that in either orientation the Cα atom of the proline is directed away from the SH3 surface and does not contribute to the binding energy. whereas the third ‘specificity’ pocket in most cases interacts there is solid evidence for specific biologically significant SH3- with a basic residue in the ligand distal to the ΦPxΦP core. ligand interactions.

Grb2 contains an SH2 domain interaction with proline-rich, PPII-helical ligands (Kay et al., that binds to tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, which is 2000; Zarrinpar and Lim, 2000). flanked by two SH3 domains that bind to the proline-rich tail As discussed below, the affinity of SH3 domains for their of Sos (as well as other proteins). Sos is a guanine-nucleotide- peptide ligands is quite low, and selectivity is generally exchange factor (GEF) for the small GTPase Ras.

An x-P dipeptide is the only possible phosphorylation (McCormick, 1993). While this remains the sequence of naturally occurring amino acids in which two paradigm for SH3-mediated intermolecular interactions, there alkylated backbone atoms are separated by only a single are now several other examples for which there is solid carbon. evidence, such as recruitment of the Pak kinase by the Dock Given that almost all of the binding energy is provided by SH2-SH3 adaptor during retinal axon migration in Drosophila the two ΦP dipeptides and the basic residue, there wouldn’t (Hing et al., 1999). seem to be much room for selectivity among different SH3 The most prominent example of the importance of domains.

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.
