Function
TEAD4_HUMAN Transcription factor which plays a key role in the Hippo signaling pathway, a pathway involved 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 MST1/MST2, 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. Acts by mediating gene expression of YAP1 and WWTR1/TAZ, thereby regulating cell proliferation, migration and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) induction. Binds specifically and non-cooperatively to the Sph and GT-IIC 'enhansons' (5'-GTGGAATGT-3') and activates transcription. Binds to the M-CAT motif.[1] [2]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
The YAP-TEAD protein-protein interaction is a potential therapeutic target to treat cancers in which the Hippo signaling pathway is deregulated. However, the extremely large surface of interaction between the two proteins presents a formidable challenge for a small molecule interaction disrupter approach. We have accomplished progress towards showing the feasibility of this approach by the identification of a 15-mer peptide able to potently (nanomolar range) disrupt the YAP-TEAD interaction by targeting only one of the two important sites of interaction. This peptide, incorporating non-natural amino acids selected by structure-based design, is derived from the Omega-loop sequence 85-99 of YAP.
