About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for STK3: Protein kinase activation is a frequent response of cells to treatment with growth factors, chemicals, heat shock, orapoptosis-inducing agents. This protein kinase activation presumably allows cells to resist unfavorable environmentalconditions. The yeast 'sterile 20' (Ste20) kinase acts upstream of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascadethat is activated under a variety of stress conditions. MST2 was identified as a kinase that is activated by theproapoptotic agents straurosporine and FAS ligand (MIM 134638) (Taylor et al., 1996 (PubMed 8816758); Lee et al., 2001(PubMed 11278283)).(supplied by OMIM) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: STK3_HUMAN, Q13188Function: Stress-activated, pro-apoptotic kinase which, following caspase-cleavage, enters the nucleus and induceschromatin condensation followed by internucleosomal DNA fragmentation. Key component of the Hippo signaling pathwaywhich plays a pivotal role in organ size control and tumor suppression by restricting proliferation and promotingapoptosis. The core of this pathway is composed of a kinase cascade wherein MST1/MST2, in complex with its regulatoryprotein SAV1, phosphorylates and activates LATS1/2 in complex with its regulatory protein MOB1, which in turnphosphorylates and inactivates YAP1 oncoprotein and WWTR1/TAZ. Phosphorylation of YAP1 by LATS2 inhibits itstranslocation into the nucleus to regulate cellular genes important for cell proliferation, cell death, and cellmigration. MST1/MST2 are required to repress proliferation of mature hepatocytes, to prevent activation of facultativeadult liver stem cells (oval cells), and to inhibit tumor formation.
