An <SH2 domain> is a <protein domain> that recognizes a <phosphotyrosine residue> together with surrounding sequence features. This selective binding recruits a <protein> to a modified <receptor> or docking <protein>; it does not itself imply <catalysis>.<Molecular Biology of the Cell, 4th edition by Bruce Alberts and others/Signaling through Enzyme-Linked Cell-Surface Receptors>[“Phosphorylated Tyrosines Serve as Docking Sites For Proteins With SH2 Domains”, Figure 15-53]{ref}
