Abstract:Numerous inhibitory immunoreceptors operate by recruiting phosphatase effectors Shp1 and Shp2 through conserved motifs ITIM and ITSM. Despite the similarity, these receptors exhibit distinct effector binding specificities, as exemplified by PD-1 and BTLA, which preferentially recruit Shp2 and Shp1 respectively. The molecular basis of Shp1/Shp2 discrimination is unclear. Here, we provide evidence that optimal PD-1 and BTLA binding to both Shp1 and Shp2 occurs via a bivalent, parallel mode that involves both SH2… Show more
“…Fiji was used to quantify the fluorescent intensities of TIGIT or PD-1 in CD226 microclusters (Schindelin et al, 2012). Mask images identifying the area of CD226 microclusters were generated by applying the ''subtract background'' command to CD226 (mGFP) images using the default setting (Xu et al, 2021). The fluorescent signals of CD226 (mGFP), TIGIT (mCherry), or PD-1 (mApple) in the masked overlaid images were measured, and used to calculate the CD226 FI/TIGIT FI or CD226 FI/PD-1 FI ratio for each cell.…”

“…In addition, SHP1 and SHP2 both contain two contiguous SH2 domains. 52,53 Using sequence alignment and phylogenetic tree methods, Andersen et al compared and analyzed the evolution relationships among vertebrate PTKs, and confirmed that the sequence of SHP2 is closest to the homologous protein SHP1 with a similarity of 60%. 54 As shown in Fig.…”
Above, the open-state protein of SHP2(SHP2*) was constructed from SHP1, and the allosteric process of SHP2 was investigated by coarse-graining and NRI-MD modeling.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
