Investigating the role of the actin cytoskeleton in hippo signalling

The Hippo pathway is composed of a phosphorylation cascade involving the kinases Hippo/MST and Warts/LATS, which inactivate the pro-growth transcriptional co-activator Yorkie/YAP. By sensing the status of the actin cytoskeleton, Yorkie/YAP is believed to respond to cell crowding and the rigidity of...
