Nephrin Suppresses Hippo Signaling through the Adaptor Proteins Nck and WTIP.
|
130 |
27033705
|
We have previously established that tyrosine phosphorylation of the transmembrane protein nephrin promotes recruitment of the Nck1/2 cytoskeletal adaptor proteins and downstream actin remodeling.
|
131 |
27033705
|
We now reveal that Nck integrates nephrin with the Hippo kinase cascade through association with the adaptor protein WTIP.
|
132 |
27033705
|
Using mutational analysis, we show that Nck sequesters WTIP and its binding partner Lats1 to phosphorylated nephrin, resulting in decreased phospho-activation of Lats1.
|
133 |
27033705
|
We further demonstrate that, coincident with nephrin dephosphorylation in a transient model of podocyte injury in mice, Lats1 is rapidly activated, and this precedes significant down-regulation of the transcription regulator Yap.

We now reveal that Nck integrates nephrin with the Hippo kinase cascade through association with the adaptor protein WTIP.

Using mutational analysis, we show that Nck sequesters WTIP and its binding partner Lats1 to phosphorylated nephrin, resulting in decreased phospho-activation of Lats1.

We further demonstrate that, coincident with nephrin dephosphorylation in a transient model of podocyte injury in mice, Lats1 is rapidly activated, and this precedes significant down-regulation of the transcription regulator Yap.

We have previously established that tyrosine phosphorylation of the transmembrane protein nephrin promotes recruitment of the Nck1/2 cytoskeletal adaptor proteins and downstream actin remodeling.
