Outline of Final Research Achievements

Since the transcription co-activator YAP has a unique function to promote regeneration, it is important to reveal the dynamics of Hippo signaling that govern YAP activity. In the present study, we introduced the KTR (Kinase Translocation Reporter) technology and attempted to develop the KTR probe for the Lats kinase that govern the Hippo-signaling. We generated 22 different KTR probes using the sequence of YAP which is the target of Lats kinase. We will continue to further improve the KTR probe to establish the system.
