Figure 2. NMR structure of the Itk SH2 domain bound to the Ac-ADpYEPP-NH[2] phosphopeptide. (a) The 20 lowest energy structures of the Itk SH2/ADpYEPP complex. The peptide ligand is shown in red and the SH2 domain in turquoise. Backbone heavy atoms within the secondary structural elements over the entire SH2 sequence were used for superpositions. (b) Ribbon diagram of the energy minimized average structure of the Itk SH2/phosphopeptide complex. (The view is identical with that shown in (a).) Regular secondary structural elements and loop regions are labeled. The location of Pro287 within the CD loop is indicated. The phosphopeptide ligand (Ac-ADpYEPP-NH[2]) is red and the phosphotyrosine (pY) and proline residue three positions C-terminal (pY+3) are labeled. In both (a) and (b) the first two residues of the phosphopeptide (AD) are not included for clarity. No NOEs are observed between this region of the peptide and the Itk SH2 domain.
