Negative Regulation of YAP by LATS1 Underscores Evolutionary Conservation of the <i>Drosophila Hippo</i> Pathway
15 Apr 2008
Abstract excerpt
The Hippo pathway defines a novel signaling cascade regulating cell proliferation and survival in Drosophila, which involves the negative regulation of the transcriptional coactivator Yorkie by the kinases Hippo and Warts. We have recently shown that the human ortholog of Yorkie, YAP, maps to a minimal amplification locus in mouse and human cancers, and that it mediates dramatic transforming activity in MCF10A...
