The role of Large tumor suppressor LATS/Warts in human cancer is not clearly understood. Here we show that hLATS1/2 cancer mutations affect their expression and kinase activity. hLATS1/2 mutants exhibit a decreased activity in inhibiting YAP and tissue growth. Therefore, hLATS1/2 alleles from human cancer can be loss-of-function mutations.
Large tumor suppressor LATS/Warts 在人类癌症中的作用尚不清楚。在这里,我们表明 hLATS1/2 癌症突变会影响其表达和激酶活性。hLATS1/2 突变体在抑制 YAP 和组织生长方面的活性降低。因此,来自人类癌症的 hLATS1/2 等位基因可能是失活突变。
