SH2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) plays an essential role in regulating phosphatidylinositol level in human cell, and is recruited to many phosphotyrosine (pY)-dependent signal transduction pathways by the SH2 domain. In immunity signaling, immunoreceptor FcγRIIB binds to SHIP2-SH2 via its Y292-phosphorylated immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) and transmits inhibitory signal, which regulates B cell and neuronal cell activity and is associated with immune diseases and Alzheimer's disease. To date, the interaction between SHIP2 and FcγRIIB has not been analyzed from a structural point of view. Here, the binding of SHIP2-SH2 with Y292-phosphorylated FcγRIIB-ITIM was analyzed using NMR spectroscopy. The results demonstrated that SHIP2-SH2 mainly utilizes two regions including a pY-binding pocket and a specificity pocket formed by βD, βE, and EF-loop, to bind with FcγRIIB-ITIM in high affinity. In addition to the two regions, the BG-loop of SHIP2-SH2 functions as an auxiliary interface enhancing affinity. By comparing the binding of SHIP2-SH2 with ligands from FcγRIIB and c-MET, a hepatocyte growth factor receptor associated with tumorigenesis, significant differences in interface and affinity were found, suggesting that SHIP2-SH2 applies diverse patterns for binding to different ligand proteins. Moreover, S49, S51, and R70 of SHIP2 were identified to mediate the binding of both FcγRIIB and c-MET, while R28 and Q107 were found to only participate in the binding of c-MET and FcγRIIB respectively. Taken together, this study reveals the diverse mechanisms of SHIP2-SH2 for recognizing different ligands, and provides important clues for selectively manipulating various signaling pathways and specific drug design.
