Abstract
The interaction of Abl-Src homology 3 domain (SH3) with the high affinity peptide p41 is the most notable example of the inconsistency existing between the currently accepted description of SH3 complexes and their binding thermodynamic signature. We had previously hypothesized that the presence of interfacial water molecules is partially responsible for this thermodynamic behavior. We present here a thermodynamic, structural, and molecular dynamics simulation study of the interaction of p41 with Abl-SH3 and a set of mutants designed to alter the water-mediated interaction network. Our results provide a detailed description of the dynamic properties of the interfacial water molecules and a molecular interpretation of the thermodynamic effects elicited by the mutations in terms of the modulation of the water-mediated hydrogen bond network. In the light of these results, a new dual binding mechanism is proposed that provides a better description of proline-rich ligand recognition by Abl-SH3 and that has important implications for rational design.

Full text Abstract
Figure 2.
Figure 2 Overall fold of the N114A mutant of the SH3 domain of Ab1 in complex with the p41 decapeptide. Residues in the SH3 domain-binding site are shown as green sticks. The decapeptide p41 is shown as yellow sticks. The proline residues interacting with the three hydrophobic pockets (pocket 1, Tyr70/Tyr115; pocket 2, Tyr115/Phe72/Trp99; pocket 3, Trp99/Trp110/Asn78) in the SH3 domain are indicated.

Figure 5 Superposition of the N114 Abl-SH3-p41 complex (cyan) and the Abl tyrosine kinase structure (PDB code 1opk ; pale green). The SH2-kinase linker implicated in regulation of the kinase activity is coloured orange. Relevant water molecules are shown as red spheres.
