Abstract excerpt
Hippo (Hpo) signaling plays a critical role in restricting tissue growth and organ size in both invertebrate and vertebrate animals. However, how the Hpo kinase is regulated during development has not been clearly understood. Using a Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation assay, we have investigated the functional significance of Hpo homo-dimer formation and subcellular localization in living cells. We found...
