چکیده

The solution structure and dynamics of G1TE, a nonphosphorylated cyclic peptide inhibitor for the Grb2 SH2 domain, was determined using two-dimensional NMR and simulated annealing methods. G1TE consists of 10 amino acids and a C-terminal Cys cyclized through its side-chain sulfur atom by a thioether linkage to its N terminus. The results indicate that G1TE assumes a circle-like shape in solution in which all the side chains are protruding outside, and none of the residues are involved in intramolecular hydrogen bonding. The average root-mean-square deviations were found to be 0.41 +/- 0.11 A for the backbone heavy atoms C, Calpha, and N, and 1.03 +/- 0.14 A for all heavy atoms in a family of 10 structures. (15)N relaxation measurements indicate that G1TE has rather restricted dynamics in the fast time scale within its backbone. However, residues Tyr3, Val6, and Gly7 may be involved in a possible conformational exchange. The structural comparison between G1TE in solution and the BCR-Abl phosphopeptide bound to Grb2 SH2 domain revealed that G1TE may form a larger circle-like binding surface than the BCR-Abl phosphopeptide in the bound form. Also, the restricted backbone dynamics of G1TE may result in a reduced loss of entropy and can compensate for the absence of a phosphate group at the Tyr3 position. These structural and dynamic properties of G1TE may provide a molecular basis for understanding its interactions with the Grb2 SH2 domain.

Insight into the Selectivity of the G7-18NATE Inhibitor Peptide for the Grb7-SH2 Domain Target

Growth factor receptor bound protein 7 (Grb7) is an adaptor protein with established roles in the progression of both breast and pancreatic cancers. Through its C-terminal SH2 domain, Grb7 binds to phosphorylated tyrosine kinases to promote proliferative and migratory signaling. Here, we investigated the molecular basis for the specificity of a Grb7 SH2-domain targeted peptide inhibitor. We ide...

High Resolution Crystal Structure of the Grb2 SH2 Domain with a Phosphopeptide Derived from CD28

Src homology 2 (SH2) domains play a critical role in cellular signal transduction. They bind to peptides containing phosphotyrosine (pY) with various specificities that depend on the flanking amino-acid residues. The SH2 domain of growth-factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2) specifically recognizes pY-X-N-X, whereas the SH2 domains in phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) recognize pY-X-X-M. Bi...

Crystal structures of a high-affinity macrocyclic peptide mimetic in complex with the Grb2 SH2 domain.

The high-affinity binding of the growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2) SH2 domain to tyrosine-phosphorylated cytosolic domains of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) is an attractive target for therapeutic intervention in many types of cancer. We report here two crystal forms of a complex between the Grb2 SH2 domain and a potent non-phosphorus-containing macrocyclic peptide mimetic that ex...

Recombinant fusion proteins FPTD-Grb2-SH2 and FPTD-Grb2-SH2M inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cells in vitro.

Growth factor receptor bound protein 2 (Grb2) is a key adaptor performing a principal role in the oncogenic Ras signaling pathway. In the present study, we generated two fusion proteins. One contained an Src homology 2 (SH2) domain of Grb2, a signal peptide sequence, FLAG-tag sequence, PTD region and we named it FPTD-Grb2-SH2, while the other contained one mutant SH2 domain, added to a signal p...

Grb2 monomer–dimer equilibrium determines normal versus oncogenic function

The SH2 and SH3 domain structural integrity and functionality were confirmed by peptide binding assays. Binding studies using two phosphotyrosine peptides derived from EGFR (FLPVPE{pY}IN-QSVPKR) and Shc (EEPPDHQ{pY}YNDFPGK) for the Grb2 SH2 domain and a SOS1-derived proline-rich peptide (PVPPPVPPRRRPEY) for the SH3 domains were performed using MST 1. Grb2 was fluorescently labeled using Atto488...
