Its expression is found in various tissue types including skin lung and liver. Mechanically LATS1\/WARTS plays a critical role in regulating the cell cycle and maintaining genomic stability. This kinase is an essential part of the Hippo signaling pathway and contributes to controlling the size of organs by inhibiting cell proliferation and promoting apoptosis.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nLATS1\/WARTS functions as an important regulator of cellular growth and differentiation. It is part of the Hippo signaling complex which includes proteins like MST1\/2 and YAP\/TAZ. This complex helps maintain proper tissue homeostasis by modulating gene expression in response to cellular density and mechanical cues. In doing so LATS1\/WARTS phosphorylates and inactivates downstream effectors YAP and TAZ preventing them from translocating to the nucleus where they could promote transcription of growth-promoting genes.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nScientists have found LATS1\/WARTS to be integral to both the Hippo signaling pathway and the cell cycle regulation pathway. Within these pathways LATS1\/WARTS interacts closely with proteins such as MOB1 and YAP mediating cellular responses to growth inhibitory signals. By controlling these interactions LATS1\/WARTS helps coordinate cell proliferation and apoptosis which is critical for proper developmental processes and prevention of tumor growth.\u003cbr\u003e\nDysregulation of LATS1\/WARTS function is associated with the development of cancers particularly in the liver and breast. Research also links LATS1\/WARTS to neurodegenerative conditions by implicating its role in apoptosis and cell survival. When its kinase activity is compromised the regulatory balance maintained by the Hippo pathway is disrupted potentially leading to unchecked cell proliferation. Connections with proteins such as YAP and TAZ further illustrate its involvement in these pathological conditions showing its importance in maintaining cellular integrity and function.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845123723433,"sku":"ab277862","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab277862","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
