Figure 2. Crystal Structure of the APS(SH2)-IRK ComplexRibbon diagram (top) and all-atom representation (bottom) of the APS(SH2)-IRK structure. The noncrystallographic 2-fold axis is vertical. The two IRK molecules are colored cyan, except for the activation loop, which is colored yellow. The two APS(SH2) protomers are colored green and purple. The three phosphotyrosine residues in the IRK activation loop are shown in ball-and-stick representation, with carbon atoms colored yellow, oxygen atoms colored red, and phosphorus atoms colored black. The bisubstrate inhibitor is colored orange, with the peptide portion shown in ribbon/coil representation, and the substrate tyrosine, linker, and ATPγS atoms shown in ball-and-stick representation. The N termini of the IRK molecules, which lead into the juxtamembrane region (34 residues to the transmembrane helix), are indicated, as are the C termini of the APS(SH2) protomers. The C-terminal tyrosine phosphorylation site in APS (Tyr-618) is 132 residues from the end of the SH2 domain.
