About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for YAP1: This gene encodes the human ortholog of chicken YAP protein which binds to the SH3 domain of the Yes proto-oncogeneproduct. This protein contains a WW domain that is found in various structural, regulatory and signaling molecules inyeast, nematode, and mammals, and may be involved in protein-protein interaction. (provided by RefSeq) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: YAP1_HUMAN, P46937Function: Transcriptional regulator which can act both as a coactivator and a corepressor and is the criticaldownstream regulatory target in the Hippo signaling pathway that plays a pivotal role in organ size control and tumorsuppression by restricting proliferation and promoting apoptosis. The core of this pathway is composed of a kinasecascade wherein MST1/MST2, in complex with its regulatory protein SAV1, phosphorylates and activates LATS1/2 incomplex with its regulatory protein MOB1, which in turn phosphorylates and inactivates YAP1 oncoprotein and WWTR1/TAZ.Plays a key role to control cell proliferation in response to cell contact. Phosphorylation of YAP1 by LATS1/2inhibits its translocation into the nucleus to regulate cellular genes important for cell proliferation, cell death,and cell migration. The presence of TEAD transcription factors are required for it to stimulate gene expression, cellgrowth, anchorage-independent growth, and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) induction. Isoform 2 and isoform 3can activate the C-terminal fragment (CTF) of ERBB4 (isoform 3) Gene Wiki entry for YAP1 |

About This Section
| UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: YAP1_HUMAN, P46937 (See
protein sequence)Recommended Name: Yorkie homolog Size: 504 amino acids; 54462 Da
Subunit: Binds to the SH3 domain of the YES kinase. Binds to WBP1 and WBP2. Binds, in vitro, through the WW1 domain, toneural isoforms of ENAH that contain the PPSY motif (By similarity). The phosphorylated form interacts with YWHAB.Interacts (via WW domains) with LATS1 (via PPxY motif 2). Interacts with LATS2. Isoform 2 and isoform 3 interact (viaWW domain 1) with isoform 3 of ERBB4 (via PPxY motif 2). Interacts with TEAD1, TEAD2, TEAD3 and TEAD4
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Both phosphorylation and cell density can regulate its subcellularlocalization. Phosphorylation sequesters it in the cytoplasm by inhibiting its translocation into the nucleus. At lowdensity, predominantly nuclear and is translocated to the cytoplasm at high density
