Function

Transcriptional regulator with dual roles as a coactivator and corepressor. Critical downstream regulatory target in the Hippo signaling pathway, crucial for organ size control and tumor suppression by restricting proliferation and promoting apoptosis (PubMed:17974916, PubMed:18280240, PubMed:18579750, PubMed:21364637, PubMed:30447097). The Hippo signaling pathway core involves a kinase cascade featuring STK3/MST2 and STK4/MST1, along with its regulatory partner SAV1, which phosphorylates and activates LATS1/2 in complex with their regulatory protein, MOB1. This activation leads to the phosphorylation and inactivation of the YAP1 oncoprotein and WWTR1/TAZ (PubMed:18158288). Phosphorylation of YAP1 by LATS1/2 prevents its nuclear translocation, thereby regulating the expression of its target genes (PubMed:18158288, PubMed:26598551, PubMed:34404733). The transcriptional regulation of gene expression requires TEAD transcription factors and modulates cell growth, anchorage-independent growth, and induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) (PubMed:18579750). Plays a key role in tissue tension and 3D tissue shape by regulating the cortical actomyosin network, acting via ARHGAP18, a Rho GTPase activating protein that suppresses F-actin polymerization (PubMed:25778702). It also suppresses ciliogenesis by acting as a transcriptional corepressor of TEAD4 target genes AURKA and PLK1 (PubMed:25849865). In conjunction with WWTR1, regulates TGFB1-dependent SMAD2 and SMAD3 nuclear accumulation (By similarity). Synergizes with WBP2 to enhance PGR activity (PubMed:16772533). Isoform 2. Activates the C-terminal fragment (CTF) of ERBB4 (isoform 3). Isoform 3. Activates the C-terminal fragment (CTF) of ERBB4 (isoform 3).

Activity summary

YAP1 also known as Yes-associated protein 1 is a transcriptional coactivator involved in regulating gene expression. This protein has a mass of approximately 65 kDa and is expressed in various tissues including the liver and heart. YAP1 plays a significant role in the Hippo signaling pathway where it acts by binding to transcriptional enhancer factors such as TEADs to activate gene transcription.

Biological function summary

YAP1 influences cell proliferation and apoptosis by interacting with other proteins to form transcriptional complexes. It participates in promoting organ size and tissue regeneration. YAP1's activity is regulated through phosphorylation primarily at serine 127 which determines its subcellular localization and transcriptional activity. The phosphorylated form often referred to as phospho-YAP remains in the cytoplasm while dephosphorylated YAP1 translocates to the nucleus where it contributes to transcriptional activation.

Pathways

YAP1 is importantly involved in the Hippo signaling pathway and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. In the Hippo pathway kinases LATS1/2 phosphorylate YAP1 preventing its nuclear localization and promoting cell apoptosis when required. In contrast in the Wnt/β-catenin pathway YAP1 interacts with β-catenin to regulate gene expression related to proliferation. Proteins such as TAZ which shares structural and functional similarities with YAP1 often collaborate in these pathways influencing cellular growth and differentiation.

Associated diseases and disorders

YAP1's dysregulation links to cancer development notably in liver and breast cancer. Overexpression or nuclear accumulation of YAP1 leads to uncontrollable cell growth and tumorigenesis. Its interaction with the TEAD transcription factors highlights its significance in oncogenesis. Furthermore YAP1 also connects with pathways involving other proteins like TGF-β contributing to fibrosis-related disorders such as pulmonary fibrosis where unexpected remodeling and excessive tissue growth occur.
