==Overview==
==Overview==
The Src SH2 domain binds pYEEI-containing phosphopeptides in an extended, conformation with a hydrophobic pocket, which includes ThrEF1, binding, Ile(pY +3). Mutating ThrEF1 to tryptophan switches specificity to an, Asn(pY +2) requirement, yielding a biological mimic of the Grb2 SH2, domain. Here we show that the Src ThrEF1Trp SH2 domain mutant binds pYVNV, phosphopeptides in a beta turn conformation, which, despite differing, conformations of the interacting tryptophan, closely resembles the native, Grb2/pYVNV cognate peptide binding mode. The ThrEF1Trp substitution, therefore switches specificity by physically occluding the pTyr +3 binding, pocket and by providing additional interaction surface area for Asn(pY, +2). This demonstrates structurally how novel SH2 domain specificities may, rapidly evolve through single amino acid substitutions and suggests how, new signaling pathways may develop.
