A number of key regulatory proteins contain one or two copies of the WW domain known to mediate protein-protein interaction via proline-rich motifs, such as PPxY. The Hippo pathway components take advantage of this module to transduce tumor suppressor signaling. It is becoming evident that tyrosine phosphorylation is a critical regulator of the WW proteins. Here, we review the current knowledge on the involved tyrosine kinases and their roles in regulating the WW proteins.
许多关键调控蛋白含有一个或两个WW结构域拷贝,已知该结构域可通过富含脯氨酸的基序(如PPxY)介导蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用。Hippo信号通路组分利用这一模块来传导肿瘤抑制信号。越来越明显的是,酪氨酸磷酸化是WW蛋白的关键调节因子。在此,我们综述了目前关于相关酪氨酸激酶及其在调节WW蛋白中的作用的知识。
