UniProt Comments for WWTR1
TAZ: 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. 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. WWTR1 enhances PAX8 and NKX2-1/TTF1-dependent gene activation. Regulates the nuclear accumulation of SMADS and has a key role in coupling them to the transcriptional machinery such as the mediator complex. Regulates embryonic stem-cell self-renewal, promotes cell proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Binds to SLC9A3R2 via the PDZ motif at the plasma membrane. Binds to YWHAZ in vivo and in vitro through the phosphoserine-binding motif RSHSSP. Interacts (via coiled-coil domain) with SMAD2 (via MH1 domain), SMAD3 and SMAD4. Interacts with MED15, PAX8 and NKX2-1. Interacts with TEAD1, TEAD2, TEAD3 and TEAD4. Highly expressed in kidney, heart, placenta and lung. Expressed in the thyroid tissue.
