Function
Transcriptional regulator which can act both as a coactivator and a corepressor and is the critical 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. 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. Plays a key role to control cell proliferation in response to cell contact. Phosphorylation of YAP1 by LATS1/2 inhibits 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, cell growth, anchorage-independent growth, and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) induction (By similarity). Isoform 2, isoform 3 and isoform 4 (lacking the C-terminal transactivation domain) can attenuate p73-mediated cell death signaling in transcriptional repression-induced atypical death (TRIAD) of neurons.

Natural and recombinant Rat Transcriptional coactivator YAP1
Subcellular Location
Cytoplasm Nucleus Both phosphorylation and cell density can regulate its subcellular localization. Phosphorylation sequesters it in the cytoplasm by inhibiting its translocation into the nucleus. At low density, predominantly nuclear and is translocated to the cytoplasm at high density.
Binds to the SH3 domain of the YES kinase. Binds to WBP1 and WBP2. Binds, in vitro, through the WW1 domain, to neural isoforms of ENAH that contain the PPSY motif. The phosphorylated form interacts with YWHAB. Interacts (via WW domains) with LATS1 (via PPxY motif 2). Interacts with LATS2. Interacts (via WW domain 1) with isoform 2 of ERBB4 (via PPxY motif 2). Interacts with TEAD1, TEAD2, TEAD3 and TEAD4 (By similarity). Interacts with TP73 (By similarity). Interacts with RUNX1.
