YAP1 Yes1 associated transcriptional regulator

Gene ID: 10413, updated on 10-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: YAP; YKI; COB1; YAP2; YAP-1; YAP65

Summary

This gene encodes a downstream nuclear effector of the Hippo signaling pathway which is involved in development, growth, repair, and homeostasis. This gene is known to play a role in the development and progression of multiple cancers as a transcriptional regulator of this signaling pathway and may function as a potential target for cancer treatment. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
