Deciphering the structural and dynamic effects of SHP2-E76 mutations: mechanistic insights into oncogenic activation by Humaira Rafiq, Lu Han, Ashfaq Ur Rehman, Pei He, Ali Saber Abdelhameed, Eman S. G. Hassan, Hongxia Fu, Abdul Wadood, Junjian Hu

“…These mutations disrupt the closed conformation, which normally keeps SHP2 in an inactive, auto-inhibited state, thereby enhancing phosphatase activity and activating SHP2, leading to a gain-of-function effect. However, the structural and functional implications of these disease-related mutants are not well elucidated. …”
