This family of serine\/threonine kinases includes MST1 (STK4) and MST2 (STK3), two functionally related proteins with conserved amino-terminal kinase domains and carboxy-terminal regulatory domains that contain nuclear export signals (1-3). During apoptosis, caspase-mediated cleavage of MST1\/2 removes the inhibitory regulatory domain, triggering autophosphorylation and activation of the kinase domain, which is translocated to the nucleus. Nuclear translocation of the active kinase induces chromatin condensation and other events associated with apoptotic progression (4). Research studies indicate that MST1\/2 are orthologous to Hippo (Hpo), one of the core regulatory proteins in the Hippo signaling pathway. This evolutionarily conserved program controls tissue growth and organ size by regulating cell proliferation, apoptosis, and stem cell self-renewal. The mammalian Hippo signaling pathway involves a kinase cascade, where the MST1\/2 kinases and the SAV1 scaffold protein form a complex that leads to phosphorylation and activation of LATS1\/2. The LATS1\/2 kinases phosphorylate YAP and TAZ, promoting cytoplasmic sequestration and inhibition of these transcription coactivators (5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\ndJ211D12.2 (serine\/threonine kinase 4 (MST1, KRS2)); DKFZp686A2068; hippo homolog; kinase responsive to stress 2; KRS2; Mammalian STE20-like protein kinase 1; mammalian sterile 20-like 1; MST-1; MST1; MST1\/C; MST1\/N; serine\/threonine kinase 4; Serine\/threonine-protein kinase 4; Serine\/threonine-protein kinase 4 18kDa subunit; Serine\/threonine-protein kinase 4 37kDa subunit; Serine\/threonine-protein kinase Krs-2; STE20-like kinase MST1; STK4; yeast Ste20-like; YSK3\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 60\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797619036329,"sku":"14946T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-14946t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
