Src Homology 3 domain of Disks Large homolog 2; DLG2, also called postsynaptic density-93 (PSD93) or Channel-associated protein of synapse-110 (chapsyn 110), is a scaffolding protein that clusters at synapses and plays an important role in synaptic development and plasticity. The DLG2 delta isoform binds inwardly rectifying potassium Kir2 channels, which determine resting membrane potential in neurons. It regulates the spatial and temporal distribution of Kir2 channels within neuronal membranes. DLG2 is a member of the MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) protein family, which is characterized by the presence of a core of three domains: PDZ, SH3, and guanylate kinase (GuK). The GuK domain in MAGUK proteins is enzymatically inactive; instead, the domain mediates protein-protein interactions and associates intramolecularly with the SH3 domain. DLG2 contains three PDZ domains. SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs. They play versatile and diverse roles in the cell including the regulation of enzymes, changing the subcellular localization of signaling pathway components, and mediating the formation of multiprotein complex assemblies.

Guanosine monophosphate kinase (GMPK, EC 2.7.4.8), also known as guanylate kinase (GKase), catalyzes the reversible phosphoryl transfer from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to guanosine monophosphate (GMP) to yield adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and guanosine diphosphate (GDP). It plays an essential role in the biosynthesis of guanosine triphosphate (GTP). This enzyme is also important for the activation of some antiviral and anticancer agents, such as acyclovir, ganciclovir, carbovir, and thiopurines.

Src Homology 3 domain of Membrane Protein, Palmitoylated (or MAGUK p55 subfamily member) proteins; The MPP/p55 subfamily of MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) proteins includes at least eight vertebrate members (MPP1-7 and CASK), four Drosophila proteins (Stardust, Varicose, CASK and Skiff), and other similar proteins; they all contain one each of the core of three domains characteristic of MAGUK proteins: PDZ, SH3, and guanylate kinase (GuK). In addition, most members except for MPP1 contain N-terminal L27 domains and some also contain a Hook (Protein 4.1 Binding) motif in between the SH3 and GuK domains. CASK has an additional calmodulin-dependent kinase (CaMK)-like domain at the N-terminus. Members of this subfamily are scaffolding proteins that play important roles in regulating and establishing cell polarity, cell adhesion, and synaptic targeting and transmission, among others. The GuK domain in MAGUK proteins is enzymatically inactive; instead, the domain mediates protein-protein interactions and associates intramolecularly with the SH3 domain.

Src Homology 3 domain of Membrane Protein, Palmitoylated 5 (or MAGUK p55 subfamily member 5); MPP5, also called PALS1 (Protein associated with Lin7) or Nagie oko protein in zebrafish or Stardust in Drosophila, is a scaffolding protein which associates with Crumbs homolog 1 (CRB1), CRB2, or CRB3 through its PDZ domain and with PALS1-associated tight junction protein (PATJ) or multi-PDZ domain protein 1 (MUPP1) through its L27 domain. The resulting tri-protein complexes are core proteins of the Crumb complex, which localizes at tight junctions or subapical regions, and is involved in the maintenance of apical-basal polarity in epithelial cells and the morphogenesis and function of photoreceptor cells. MPP5 is critical for the proper stratification of the retina and is also expressed in T lymphocytes where it is important for TCR-mediated activation of NFkB. Drosophila Stardust exists in several isoforms, some of which show opposing functions in photoreceptor cells, which suggests that the relative ratio of different Crumbs complexes regulates photoreceptor homeostasis. MPP5 contains two L27 domains followed by the core of three domains characteristic of MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) proteins: PDZ, SH3, and guanylate kinase (GuK). In addition, it also contains the Hook (Protein 4.1 Binding) motif in between the SH3 and GuK domains. The GuK domain in MAGUK proteins is enzymatically inactive; instead, the domain mediates protein-protein interactions and associates intramolecularly with the SH3 domain.

Src Homology 3 domain of Membrane Protein, Palmitoylated 1 (or MAGUK p55 subfamily member 1); MPP1, also called 55 kDa erythrocyte membrane protein (p55), is a ubiquitously-expressed scaffolding protein that plays roles in regulating neutrophil polarity, cell shape, hair cell development, and neural development and patterning of the retina. It was originally identified as an erythrocyte protein that stabilizes the actin cytoskeleton to the plasma membrane by forming a complex with 4.1R protein and glycophorin C. MPP1 is one of seven vertebrate homologs of the Drosophila Stardust protein, which is required in establishing cell polarity, and it contains the three domains characteristic of MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) proteins: PDZ, SH3, and guanylate kinase (GuK). In addition, it also contains the Hook (Protein 4.1 Binding) motif in between the SH3 and GuK domains. The GuK domain in MAGUK proteins is enzymatically inactive; instead, the domain mediates protein-protein interactions and associates intramolecularly with the SH3 domain.

Src Homology 3 domain of Membrane Protein, Palmitoylated 3 (or MAGUK p55 subfamily member 3); MPP3 is a scaffolding protein that colocalizes with MPP5 and CRB1 at the subdpical region adjacent to adherens junctions and may function in photoreceptor polarity. It interacts with some nectins and regulates their trafficking and processing. Nectins are cell-cell adhesion proteins involved in the establishment apical-basal polarity at cell adhesion sites. It is one of seven vertebrate homologs of the Drosophila Stardust protein, which is required in establishing cell polarity, and it contains two L27 domains followed by the core of three domains characteristic of MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) proteins: PDZ, SH3, and guanylate kinase (GuK). The GuK domain in MAGUK proteins is enzymatically inactive; instead, the domain mediates protein-protein interactions and associates intramolecularly with the SH3 domain.

Src homology 3 domain of Src kinase-like Protein Tyrosine Kinases; Src subfamily members include Src, Lck, Hck, Blk, Lyn, Fgr, Fyn, Yrk, Yes, and Brk. Src (or c-Src) proteins are cytoplasmic (or non-receptor) PTKs which are anchored to the plasma membrane. They contain an N-terminal SH4 domain with a myristoylation site, followed by SH3 and SH2 domains, a tyr kinase domain, and a regulatory C-terminal region containing a conserved tyr. They are activated by autophosphorylation at the tyr kinase domain, but are negatively regulated by phosphorylation at the C-terminal tyr by Csk (C-terminal Src Kinase). However, Brk lacks the N-terminal myristoylation sites. Src proteins are involved in signaling pathways that regulate cytokine and growth factor responses, cytoskeleton dynamics, cell proliferation, survival, and differentiation. They were identified as the first proto-oncogene products, and they regulate cell adhesion, invasion, and motility in cancer cells, and tumor vasculature, contributing to cancer progression and metastasis. Src kinases are overexpressed in a variety of human cancers, making them attractive targets for therapy. They are also implicated in acute inflammatory responses and osteoclast function. Src, Fyn, Yes, and Yrk are widely expressed, while Blk, Lck, Hck, Fgr, Lyn, and Brk show a limited expression pattern. This subfamily also includes Drosophila Src42A, Src oncogene at 42A (also known as Dsrc41) which accumulates at sites of cell-cell or cell-matrix adhesion, and participates in Drosphila development and wound healing. It has been shown to promote tube elongation in the tracheal system, is essential for proper cell-cell matching during dorsal closure, and regulates cell-cell contacts in developing Drosophila eyes. The SH3 domain of Src kinases contributes to substrate recruitment by binding adaptor proteins/substrates, and regulation of kinase activity through an intramolecular interaction. SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs. They play versatile and diverse roles in the cell including the regulation of enzymes, changing the subcellular localization of signaling pathway components, and mediating the formation of multiprotein complex assemblies.

N-terminal Src Homology 3 domain of Ct10 Regulator of Kinase adaptor proteins; CRK adaptor proteins consists of SH2 and SH3 domains, which bind tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides and proline-rich motifs, respectively. They function downstream of protein tyrosine kinases in many signaling pathways started by various extracellular signals, including growth and differentiation factors. Cellular CRK (c-CRK) contains a single SH2 domain, followed by N-terminal and C-terminal SH3 domains. It is involved in the regulation of many cellular processes including cell growth, motility, adhesion, and apoptosis. CRK has been implicated in the malignancy of various human cancers. The N-terminal SH3 domain of CRK binds a number of target proteins including DOCK180, C3G, SOS, and cABL. The CRK family includes two alternatively spliced protein forms, CRKI and CRKII, that are expressed by the CRK gene, and the CRK-like (CRKL) protein, which is expressed by a distinct gene (CRKL). SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs.

Src Homology 3 domain of Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel subunit beta; Voltage-dependent calcium channels (Ca(V)s) are multi-protein complexes that regulate the entry of calcium into cells. They impact muscle contraction, neuronal migration, hormone and neurotransmitter release, and the activation of calcium-dependent signaling pathways. They are composed of four subunits: alpha1, alpha2delta, beta, and gamma. The beta subunit is a soluble and intracellular protein that interacts with the transmembrane alpha1 subunit. It facilitates the trafficking and proper localization of the alpha1 subunit to the cellular plasma membrane. Vertebrates contain four different beta subunits from distinct genes (beta1-4); each exists as multiple splice variants. All are expressed in the brain while other tissues show more specific expression patterns. The beta subunits show similarity to MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) proteins in that they contain SH3 and inactive guanylate kinase (GuK) domains; however, they do not appear to contain a PDZ domain. SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs. They play versatile and diverse roles in the cell including the regulation of enzymes, changing the subcellular localization of signaling pathway components, and mediating the formation of multiprotein complex assemblies.

C-terminal Src homology 3 domain of GRB2-related adaptor protein; GRAP is a GRB-2 like adaptor protein that is highly expressed in lymphoid tissues. It acts as a negative regulator of T cell receptor (TCR)-induced lymphocyte proliferation by downregulating the signaling to the Ras/ERK pathway. It has been identified as a regulator of TGFbeta signaling in diabetic kidney tubules and may have a role in the pathogenesis of the disease. GRAP contains an N-terminal SH3 domain, a central SH2 domain, and a C-terminal SH3 domain. The C-terminal SH3 domains (SH3c) of the related proteins, GRB2 and GRAP2, have been shown to bind to classical PxxP motif ligands, as well as to non-classical motifs. GRB2 SH3c binds Gab2 (Grb2-associated binder 2) through epitopes containing RxxK motifs, while the SH3c of GRAP2 binds to the phosphatase-like protein HD-PTP via a RxxxxK motif. SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that typically bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs. They play versatile and diverse roles in the cell including the regulation of enzymes, changing the subcellular localization of signaling pathway components, and mediating the formation of multiprotein complex assemblies.

Src homology 3 domain of Yes Protein Tyrosine Kinase; Yes (or c-Yes) is a member of the Src subfamily of proteins, which are cytoplasmic (or non-receptor) PTKs. c-Yes kinase is the cellular homolog of the oncogenic protein (v-Yes) encoded by the Yamaguchi 73 and Esh sarcoma viruses. It displays functional overlap with other Src subfamily members, particularly Src. It also shows some unique functions such as binding to occludins, transmembrane proteins that regulate extracellular interactions in tight junctions. Yes also associates with a number of proteins in different cell types that Src does not interact with, like JAK2 and gp130 in pre-adipocytes, and Pyk2 in treated pulmonary vein endothelial cells. Although the biological function of Yes remains unclear, it appears to have a role in regulating cell-cell interactions and vesicle trafficking in polarized cells. Src kinases contain an N-terminal SH4 domain with a myristoylation site, followed by SH3 and SH2 domains, a tyr kinase domain, and a regulatory C-terminal region containing a conserved tyr. They are activated by autophosphorylation at the tyr kinase domain, but are negatively regulated by phosphorylation at the C-terminal tyr by Csk (C-terminal Src Kinase).

Src homology 3 domain of the Tight junction protein, Zonula occludens protein 3; ZO-3 is a scaffolding protein that associates with other ZO proteins and other proteins of the tight junction, zonula adherens, and gap junctions. ZO proteins play roles in regulating cytoskeletal dynamics at these cell junctions. ZO-3 is critical for epidermal barrier function. It regulates cyclin D1-dependent cell proliferation. It is considered a member of the MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) protein family, which is characterized by the presence of a core of three domains: PDZ, SH3, and guanylate kinase (GuK). The GuK domain in MAGUK proteins is enzymatically inactive; instead, the domain mediates protein-protein interactions and associates intramolecularly with the SH3 domain. The C-terminal region of ZO-3 is the smallest of the three ZO proteins. The SH3 domain of the related protein ZO-1 has been shown to bind ZONAB, ZAK, afadin, and Galpha12. SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs.

Src homology 3 domain of Fyn and Yrk Protein Tyrosine Kinases; Fyn and Yrk (Yes-related kinase) are members of the Src subfamily of proteins, which are cytoplasmic (or non-receptor) PTKs. Fyn, together with Lck, plays a critical role in T-cell signal transduction by phosphorylating ITAM (immunoreceptor tyr activation motif) sequences on T-cell receptors, ultimately leading to the proliferation and differentiation of T-cells. In addition, Fyn is involved in the myelination of neurons, and is implicated in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Yrk has been detected only in chickens. It is primarily found in neuronal and epithelial cells and in macrophages. It may play a role in inflammation and in response to injury. Src kinases contain an N-terminal SH4 domain with a myristoylation site, followed by SH3 and SH2 domains, a tyr kinase domain, and a regulatory C-terminal region containing a conserved tyr. They are activated by autophosphorylation at the tyr kinase domain, but are negatively regulated by phosphorylation at the C-terminal tyr by Csk (C-terminal Src Kinase).

Src Homology 3 domain of Rho GTPase-activating protein 9 and similar proteins; This subfamily is composed of Rho GTPase-activating proteins including mammalian ARHGAP9, and vertebrate ARHGAPs 12 and 27. RhoGAPs (or ARHGAPs) bind to Rho proteins and enhance the hydrolysis rates of bound GTP. ARHGAP9 functions as a GAP for Rac and Cdc42, but not for RhoA. It negatively regulates cell migration and adhesion. It also acts as a docking protein for the MAP kinases Erk2 and p38alpha, and may facilitate cross-talk between the Rho GTPase and MAPK pathways to control actin remodeling. ARHGAP27, also called CAMGAP1, shows GAP activity towards Rac1 and Cdc42. It binds the adaptor protein CIN85 and may play a role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. ARHGAP12 has been shown to display GAP activity towards Rac1. It plays a role in regulating HFG-driven cell growth and invasiveness. ARHGAPs in this subfamily contain SH3, WW, Pleckstin homology (PH), and RhoGAP domains. SH3 domains bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs; they play a role in the regulation of enzymes by intramolecular interactions, changing the subcellular localization of signal pathway components and mediate multiprotein complex assemblies.

Src Homology 3 domain of Voltage-dependent L-type calcium channel subunit beta-1; The beta1 subunit of voltage-dependent calcium channels (Ca(V)s) is one of four beta subunits present in vertebrates. It is the only beta subunit, as the beta1a variant, expressed in skeletal muscle; the beta1b variant is also widely expressed in other tissues including the heart and brain. Knockout of the beta1 gene in mice results in embryonic lethality, demonstrating its importance in development. Ca(V)s are multi-protein complexes that regulate the entry of calcium into cells. They impact muscle contraction, neuronal migration, hormone and neurotransmitter release, and the activation of calcium-dependent signaling pathways. They are composed of four subunits: alpha1, alpha2delta, beta, and gamma. The beta subunit is a soluble and intracellular protein that interacts with the transmembrane alpha1 subunit. It facilitates the trafficking and proper localization of the alpha1 subunit to the cellular plasma membrane. Vertebrates contain four different beta subunits from distinct genes (beta1-4); each exists as multiple splice variants. All are expressed in the brain while other tissues show more specific expression patterns. The beta subunits show similarity to MAGUK (membrane-associated guanylate kinase) proteins in that they contain SH3 and inactive guanylate kinase (GuK) domains; however, they do not appear to contain a PDZ domain. SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs. They play versatile and diverse roles in the cell including the regulation of enzymes, changing the subcellular localization of signaling pathway components, and mediating the formation of multiprotein complex assemblies.

Second Src Homology 3 domain of FCH and double SH3 domains proteins; This group is composed of FCH and double SH3 domains protein 1 (FCHSD1) and FCHSD2. These proteins have a common domain structure consisting of an N-terminal F-BAR (FES-CIP4 Homology and Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs), two SH3, and C-terminal proline-rich domains. They have only been characterized in silico and their functions remain unknown. This group also includes the insect protein, nervous wreck, which acts as a regulator of synaptic growth signaling. SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs. They play versatile and diverse roles in the cell including the regulation of enzymes, changing the subcellular localization of signaling pathway components, and mediating the formation of multiprotein complex assemblies.

Fifth Src homology 3 domain (or SH3E) of Intersectin; Intersectins (ITSNs) are adaptor proteins that function in exo- and endocytosis, actin cytoskeletal reorganization, and signal transduction. They are essential for initiating clathrin-coated pit formation. They bind to many proteins through their multidomain structure and facilitate the assembly of multimeric complexes. Vertebrates contain two ITSN proteins, ITSN1 and ITSN2, which exist in alternatively spliced short and long isoforms. The short isoforms contain two Eps15 homology domains (EH1 and EH2), a coiled-coil region and five SH3 domains (SH3A-E), while the long isoforms, in addition, contain RhoGEF (also called Dbl-homologous or DH), Pleckstrin homology (PH) and C2 domains. ITSN1 and ITSN2 are both widely expressed, with variations depending on tissue type and stage of development. The fifth SH3 domain (or SH3E) of ITSN1 has been shown to bind many protein partners including SGIP1, Sos1, dynamin1/2, CIN85, c-Cbl, SHIP2, N-WASP, and synaptojanin-1, among others. SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs. They play versatile and diverse roles in the cell including the regulation of enzymes, changing the subcellular localization of signaling pathway components, and mediating the formation of multiprotein complex assemblies.
