Description

Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

PA1-4218 detects the TAZ protein in human, mouse, and rat samples. PA1-4218 has been successfully used in Western blot procedures. By Western blot this antibody detects a ~49 kDa protein representing TAZ in MDCK cells. The PA1-4218 immunogen is a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues V(386) E S A L N K S E P FL T W L(400) of the 49kDa human TAZ protein.

WW domain-containing transcription regulator protein 1 (WWTR1) is a 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 supression 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. In turn, MOB1 phosphorylates and inactivates YAP1 oncoprotein and WWTR1/TAZ. WWTR1 enhances PAX8 and NKX2-1/TTF1-dependent gene activation. WWTR1 regulates the nuclear accumulation of SMADS and has a key role in coupling them to the transcriptional machinery such as the mediator complex. WWTR1 also regulates embryonic stem-cell self-renewal and promotes cell proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
