Transcriptional coactivator which acts as a downstream regulatory target in the Hippo signaling pathway that plays a pivotal role in organ size control and tumor suppression by restricting proliferation and promoting apoptosis (PubMed:11118213, PubMed:18227151, PubMed:23911299). The core of this pathway is composed of a kinase cascade wherein STK3/MST2 and STK4/MST1, in complex with its regulatory protein SAV1, phosphorylates and activates LATS1/2 in complex with its regulatory protein MOB1, which in turn phosphorylates and inactivates YAP1 oncoprotein and WWTR1/TAZ (PubMed:18227151). WWTR1 enhances PAX8 and NKX2-1/TTF1-dependent gene activation (PubMed:19010321). In conjunction with YAP1, involved in the regulation of TGFB1-dependent SMAD2 and SMAD3 nuclear accumulation (PubMed:18568018). Plays a key role in coupling SMADs to the transcriptional machinery such as the mediator complex (PubMed:18568018). Regulates embryonic stem-cell self-renewal, promotes cell proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (PubMed:18227151, PubMed:18568018).

TAZ also known as WWTR1 (WW Domain-Containing Transcription Regulator 1) acts as a transcriptional co-activator in cells. TAZ has a molecular mass of approximately 45 kDa. This protein appears in various tissues including the lung kidney brain and heart. TAZ interacts with other transcription factors to influence gene expression playing a role in cellular signaling and development.
TAZ works as a part of the Hippo signaling pathway regulating cell growth proliferation and apoptosis. It changes cellular responses through interactions with other proteins such as TEAD transcription factors. TAZ can act within the cytoplasm or the nucleus changing its location in the cell based on physiological signals. It operates independently as well as in concert with other molecules assisting in maintaining tissue homeostasis and regeneration.
TAZ functions as an essential element of the Hippo pathway which controls organ size and suppresses cancer. It plays significant roles in the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway coordinating with YAP (Yes-associated protein) a well-known partner in these pathways. TAZ and YAP together influence transcriptional outcomes for numerous genes adjusting to the needs of various cellular contexts which affect cell behavior significantly.
TAZ associates with cancer and fibrosis. In many cancers TAZ exhibits high activity often linked with poor prognosis due to its role in promoting cell proliferation and survival. TAZ interacts with beta-catenin in cancer contexts influencing signaling that drives cancer progression. In fibrosis aberrant TAZ signaling leads to excessive tissue scarring working alongside CTGF (Connective Tissue Growth Factor) to support this pathological development.
