Structural highlights
Function
P85A_HUMAN Binds to activated (phosphorylated) protein-Tyr kinases, through its SH2 domain, and acts as an adapter, mediating the association of the p110 catalytic unit to the plasma membrane. Necessary for the insulin-stimulated increase in glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis in insulin-sensitive tissues. Plays an important role in signaling in response to FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, FGFR4, KITLG/SCF, KIT, PDGFRA and PDGFRB. Likewise, plays a role in ITGB2 signaling.[1] [2] [3]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
Crystal structures of the amino-terminal SH2 domain of the p85alpha subunit of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, alone and in complex with phosphopeptides bearing pTyr-Met/Val-Xaa-Met motifs, show that phosphopeptides bind in the two-pronged manner seen in high-affinity Lck and Src SH2 complexes, with conserved interactions between the domain and the peptide segment from phosphotyrosine to Met+3. Peptide binding requires the rearrangement of a tyrosyl side chain in the BG loop to create the hydrophobic Met+3 binding pocket. The structures suggest a mechanism for the biological specificity exhibited by PI 3-kinase in its interactions with phosphoprotein partners.
