Src homology 2 (SH2) domain; In general, SH2 domains are involved in signal transduction; they bind pTyr-containing polypeptide ligands via two surface pockets, a pTyr and hydrophobic binding pocket, allowing proteins with SH2 domains to localize to tyrosine phosphorylated sites. They are present in a wide array of proteins including: adaptor proteins (Nck1, Crk, Grb2), scaffolds (Slp76, Shc, Dapp1), kinases (Src, Syk, Fps, Tec), phosphatases (Shp-1, Shp-2), transcription factors (STAT1), Ras signaling molecules (Ras-Gap), ubiquitination factors (c-Cbl), cytoskeleton regulators (Tensin), signal regulators (SAP), and phospholipid second messengers (PLCgamma), amongst others.

Src homology 2 domain found in hematopoietic SH2 (HSH2) protein; HSH2 is thought to function as an adapter protein involved in tyrosine kinase signaling. It may also be involved in regulating cytokine signaling and cytoskeletal reorganization in hematopoietic cells. HSH2 contains several putative protein-binding motifs, SH3-binding proline-rich regions, and phosphotyrosine sites, but lacks enzymatic motifs. HSH2 was found to interact with cytokine-regulated tyrosine kinase c-FES and an activated Cdc42-associated tyrosine kinase ACK1. HSH2 binds c-FES through both its C-terminal region and its N-terminal region including the SH2 domain and binds ACK1 via its N-terminal proline-rich region. Both kinases bound and tyrosine-phosphorylated HSH2 in mammalian cells. In general SH2 domains are involved in signal transduction. They typically bind pTyr-containing ligands via two surface pockets, a pTyr and hydrophobic binding pocket, allowing proteins with SH2 domains to localize to tyrosine phosphorylated sites.
