Preparation and Storage

Background: SHIP2

SHIP2 (SH2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2; also inositol polyphosphate phosphatase-like 1) is a 160 kDa member of the phosphatidylinositol/PtdIns 5-phosphatase family of enzymes.  It is widely expressed and negatively regulates PI3 kinase pathways by hydrolyzing the 5-phosphate of PtdIns-3,4,5-triphosphate.  Human SHIP2 is 1258 amino acids (aa) in length.  It contains one SH2 domain (aa 21-117), a Pro-rich region with an SH3 binding site (aa 935-1105), and a SAM (or sterile alpha -motif) domain that binds ARAP3 (aa 1196-1258). Phosphorylation is known to occur on Tyr986, 1162 and 1358, and on Thr958. There is an alternate start site at Met243 and a second splice variant that shows a 40 aa substitution for aa 1228-1258. Over aa 1106-1258, human SHIP2 shares 95% aa identity with mouse SHIP2.
