The intracellular Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase (SHP-1) has been characterized as a negative regulator of T cell function, contributing to the definition of T cell receptor signaling thresholds in developing and peripheral mouse T lymphocytes. The activation of SHP-1 is achieved through the engagement of its tandem SH2 domains by tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins; however, the identity of the activating ligand(s) for SHP-1, within mouse primary T cells, is presently unresolved. The identification of SHP-1 ligand( s) in primary T cells would provide crucial insight into the molecular mechanisms by which SHP-1 contributes to in vivo thresholds for T cell activation. Here we present a combination of biochemical and yeast genetic analyses indicating CD22 to be a T cell ligand for the SHP-1 SH2 domains. Based on these observations we have confirmed that CD22 is indeed expressed on mouse primary T cells and capable of associating with SHP-1. Significantly, CD22-deficient T cells demonstrate enhanced proliferation in response to anti-CD3 or allogeneic stimulation. Furthermore, the co-engagement of CD3 and CD22 results in a raising of TCR signaling thresholds hence demonstrating a previously unsuspected functional role for CD22 in primary T cells.
