Protein semisynthesis underscores the role of a conserved lysine in activation and desensitization of acid-sensing ion channels. Cell Chem Biol 2024; 31:1000-1010.e6.

Abstract
Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are trimeric ion channels that open a cation-conducting pore in response to proton binding. Excessive ASIC activation during prolonged acidosis in conditions such as inflammation and ischemia is linked to pain and stroke. A conserved lysine in the extracellular domain (Lys211 in mASIC1a) is suggested to play a key role in ASIC function. However, the precise contributions are difficult to dissect with conventional mutagenesis, as replacement of Lys211 with naturally occurring amino acids invariably changes multiple physico-chemical parameters. Here, we study the contribution of Lys211 to mASIC1a function using tandem protein trans-splicing (tPTS) to incorporate non-canonical lysine analogs. We conduct optimization efforts to improve splicing and functionally interrogate semisynthetic mASIC1a. In combination with molecular modeling, we show that Lys211 charge and side-chain length are crucial to activation and desensitization, thus emphasizing that tPTS can enable atomic-scale interrogations of membrane proteins in live cells.

Abstract
A comprehensive analysis of the phosphoproteome is essential for understanding molecular mechanisms of human diseases. However, current tools used to enrich phosphotyrosine (pTyr) are limited in their applicability and scope. Here, we engineered new superbinder Src-Homology 2 (SH2) domains that enrich diverse sets of pTyr-peptides. We used phage display to select a Fes-SH2 domain variant (superFes; sFes1) with high affinity for pTyr and solved its structure bound to a pTyr-peptide. We performed systematic structure-function analyses of the superbinding mechanisms of sFes1 and superSrc-SH2 (sSrc1), another SH2 superbinder. We grafted the superbinder motifs from sFes1 and sSrc1 into 17 additional SH2 domains and confirmed increased binding affinity for specific pTyr-peptides. Using mass spectrometry (MS), we demonstrated that SH2 superbinders have distinct specificity profiles and superior capabilities to enrich pTyr-peptides. Finally, using combinations of SH2 superbinders as affinity purification (AP) tools we showed that unique subsets of pTyr-peptides can be enriched with unparalleled depth and coverage.

Abstract
Virtually all aspects of cell biology are regulated by a ubiquitin code
where distinct ubiquitin chain architectures guide the binding events and
itineraries of modified substrates. Various combinations of E2 and E3 enzymes
accomplish chain formation by forging isopeptide bonds between the C-terminus of
their transiently-linked donor ubiquitin and a specific nucleophilic amino acid
on the acceptor ubiquitin, yet it is unknown whether the fundamental feature of
most acceptors - the lysine side-chain - affects catalysis. Here, use of
synthetic ubiquitins with non-natural acceptor site replacements reveals that
the aliphatic side-chain specifying reactive amine geometry is a determinant of
the ubiquitin code, through unanticipated and complex reliance of many distinct
ubiquitin carrying enzymes on a canonical acceptor lysine.

Abstract
The Src homology 2 (SH2) domain has a highly conserved architecture that recognizes linear phosphotyrosine motifs and is present in a wide range of signaling pathways across different evolutionary taxa. A hallmark of SH2 domains is the arginine residue in the conserved FLVR motif that forms a direct salt bridge with bound phosphotyrosine. Here, we solve the X-ray crystal structures of the C-terminal SH2 domain of p120RasGAP (RASA1) in its apo and peptide-bound form. We find that the arginine residue in the FLVR motif does not directly contact pTyr1087 of a bound phosphopeptide derived from p190RhoGAP; rather, it makes an intramolecular salt bridge to an aspartic acid. Unexpectedly, coordination of phosphotyrosine is achieved by a modified binding pocket that appears early in evolution. Using isothermal titration calorimetry, we find that substitution of the FLVR arginine R377A does not cause a significant loss of phosphopeptide binding, but rather a tandem substitution of R398A (SH2 position βD4) and K400A (SH2 position βD6) is required to disrupt the binding. These results indicate a hitherto unrecognized diversity in SH2 domain interactions with phosphotyrosine and classify the C-terminal SH2 domain of p120RasGAP as "FLVR-unique."

Selective incorporation of proteinaceous over nonproteinaceous cationic amino acids in model prebiotic oligomerization reactions. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2019; 116:16338-16346.

Abstract
One of the long-standing questions in origins-of-life research centers on how the proteinaceous side chains and the protein backbone were selected during the earliest phases of evolution. Here we have studied oligomerization reactions of a group of positively charged amino acids, both proteinaceous and nonproteinaceous. Amino acids spontaneously oligomerized without the use of enzymes or activating agents, under mild, hydroxy acid-catalyzed, dry-down conditions. We observed that the proteinaceous amino acids oligomerized more extensively and with greater preference for reactivity through their α-amine compared with nonproteinaceous amino acids, forming predominantly linear, protein-like backbone topologies. These findings provide a purely chemical basis for selection of the positively charged amino acids found in today’s proteins. Numerous long-standing questions in origins-of-life research center on the history of biopolymers. For example, how and why did nature select the polypeptide backbone and proteinaceous side chains? Depsipeptides, containing both ester and amide linkages, have been proposed as ancestors of polypeptides. In this paper, we investigate cationic depsipeptides that form under mild dry-down reactions. We compare the oligomerization of various cationic amino acids, including the cationic proteinaceous amino acids (lysine, Lys; arginine, Arg; and histidine, His), along with nonproteinaceous analogs of Lys harboring fewer methylene groups in their side chains. These analogs, which have been discussed as potential prebiotic alternatives to Lys, are ornithine, 2,4-diaminobutyric acid, and 2,3-diaminopropionic acid (Orn, Dab, and Dpr). We observe that the proteinaceous amino acids condense more extensively than these nonproteinaceous amino acids. Orn and Dab readily cyclize into lactams, while Dab and Dpr condense less efficiently. Furthermore, the proteinaceous amino acids exhibit more selective oligomerization through their α-amines relative to their side-chain groups. This selectivity results in predominantly linear depsipeptides in which the amino acids are α-amine−linked, analogous to today’s proteins. These results suggest a chemical basis for the selection of Lys, Arg, and His over other cationic amino acids for incorporation into proto-proteins on the early Earth. Given that electrostatics are key elements of protein−RNA and protein−DNA interactions in extant life, we hypothesize that cationic side chains incorporated into proto-peptides, as reported in this study, served in a variety of functions with ancestral nucleic acid polymers in the early stages of life.

Abstract
Src homology 2 (SH2) domains play an essential role in cellular signal transduction by binding to proteins phosphorylated on Tyr residue. Although Tyr phosphorylation (pY) is a prerequisite for binding for essentially all SH2 domains characterized to date, different SH2 domains prefer specific sequence motifs C-terminal to the pY residue. Because all SH2 domains adopt the same structural fold, it is not well understood how different SH2 domains have acquired the ability to recognize distinct sequence motifs. We have shown previously that the EF and BG loops that connect the secondary structure elements on an SH2 domain dictate its specificity. In this study, we investigated if these surface loops could be engineered to encode diverse specificities. By characterizing a group of SH2 variants selected by different pY peptides from phage-displayed libraries, we show that the EF and BG loops of the Fyn SH2 domain can encode a wide spectrum of specificities, including all three major specificity classes (p + 2, p + 3 and p + 4) of the SH2 domain family. Furthermore, we found that the specificity of a given variant correlates with the sequence feature of the bait peptide used for its isolation, suggesting that an SH2 domain may acquire specificity by co-evolving with its ligand. Intriguingly, we found that the SH2 variants can employ a variety of different mechanisms to confer the same specificity, suggesting the EF and BG loops are highly flexible and adaptable. Our work provides a plausible mechanism for the SH2 domain to acquire the wide spectrum of specificity observed in nature through loop variation with minimal disturbance to the SH2 fold. It is likely that similar mechanisms may have been employed by other modular interaction domains to generate diversity in specificity.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation is the most abundant post-translational modification in cells. Src homology 2 (SH2) domains specifically recognize phosphorylated tyrosine (pTyr) residues to mediate signaling cascades. A conserved pocket in the SH2 domain binds the pTyr side chain and the EF and BG loops determine binding specificity. By using large phage-displayed libraries, we engineered the EF and BG loops of the Fyn SH2 domain to alter specificity. Engineered SH2 variants exhibited distinct specificity profiles and were able to bind pTyr sites on the epidermal growth factor receptor, which were not recognized by the wild-type Fyn SH2 domain. Furthermore, mass spectrometry showed that SH2 variants with additional mutations in the pTyr-binding pocket that enhanced affinity were highly effective for enrichment of diverse pTyr peptides within the human proteome. These results showed that engineering of the EF and BG loops could be used to tailor SH2 domain specificity, and SH2 variants with diverse specificities and high affinities for pTyr residues enabled more comprehensive analysis of the human phosphoproteome. STATEMENT: Src Homology 2 (SH2) domains are modular domains that recognize phosphorylated tyrosine embedded in proteins, transducing these post-translational modifications into cellular responses. Here we used phage display to engineer hundreds of SH2 domain variants with altered binding specificities and enhanced affinities, which enabled efficient and differential enrichment of the human phosphoproteome for analysis by mass spectrometry. These engineered SH2 domain variants will be useful tools for elucidating the molecular determinants governing SH2 domains binding specificity and for enhancing analysis and understanding of the human phosphoproteome.

Abstract
Discerning the different interaction states during dynamic protein-ligand binding is difficult. Here we apply site-specific cysteine-α-chloroacetyl cross-linking to scrutinize the binding between the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain and phosphotyrosine (pY) peptides, a highly dynamic interaction that is a key to cellular signal transduction. From a model SH2 protein to a set of representative SH2 domains, we showed here that a proximity-induced cysteine-α-chloroacetyl reaction cross-linked two spatially adjacent chemical groups as a result of the binding interaction, and reciprocally, the information about the interaction states can be deduced from the cross-linked products. To our surprise, we found SH2 domains can adopt a reverse binding mode with "single-pronged", "two-pronged", and "half" pY peptides. This finding was further supported by a set of 500 ns molecular dynamics simulations. This serendipitous finding defies the canonical theory of SH2 binding, suggests a possible answer about the source of the versatility of SH2 signaling, and sets a model for other protein binding interactions.

Abstract
Intracellular signaling from receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) on extracellular stimulation is fundamental to all cellular processes. The protein-protein interactions which form the basis of this signaling are mediated through a limited number of polypeptide domains. For signal transduction without corruption, based on a model where signaling pathways are considered as linear bimolecular relays, these interactions have to be highly specific. This is particularly the case when one considers that any cell may have copies of similar binding domains found in numerous proteins. In this work, an overview of the thermodynamics of binding of two of the most common of these domains (SH2 and SH3 domains) is given. This, coupled with insight from high-resolution structural detail, provides a comprehensive survey of how recognition of cognate binding sites for these domains occurs. Based on the data presented, we conclude that specificity offered by these interactions of SH2 and SH3 domains is limited and not sufficient to enforce mutual exclusivity in RTK-mediated signaling. This may explain the current lack of success in pharmaceutical intervention to inhibit the interactions of these domains when they are responsible for aberrant signaling and the resulting disease states such as cancer.

Abstract
The incorporation of lysine analogs in Src Homology 2 (SH2) domain variants by Virdee et al. (2010) reveals the length-dependent contribution of a single amino acid side chain in recognition of phosphotyrosine-containing substrate peptides and a change in specificity with shorter side chains.
