Abstract

YAP/TEAD are nuclear effectors of the Hippo pathway, regulating organ size and tumorigenesis largely through promoter-associated function. However, their function as enhancer regulators remains poorly understood. Through an in vivo proximity-dependent labeling (BioID) technique, we identified YAP1 and TEAD4 protein as co-regulators of ERα on enhancers. The binding of YAP1/TEAD4 to ERα-bound enhancers is augmented upon E stimulation and is required for the induction of E/ERα target genes and E-induced oncogenic cell growth. Furthermore, their enhancer binding is a prerequisite for enhancer activation marked by eRNA transcription and for the recruitment of the enhancer activation machinery component MED1. The binding of TEAD4 on active ERE-containing enhancers is independent of its DNA-binding behavior, and instead, occurs through protein-tethering trans-binding. Our data reveal a non-canonical function of YAP1 and TEAD4 as ERα cofactors in regulating cancer growth, highlighting the potential of YAP/TEAD as possible actionable drug targets for ERα breast cancer.

摘要

YAP/TEAD 是 Hippo 通路的核效应物,主要通过启动子相关功能调节器官大小和肿瘤发生。然而,它们作为增强子调节剂的功能仍知之甚少。通过体内邻近依赖性标记(BioID)技术,我们鉴定出 YAP1 和 TEAD4 蛋白作为 ERα 在增强子上的共调节剂。E 刺激后,YAP1/TEAD4 与 ERα 结合的增强子结合增加,这是诱导 E/ERα 靶基因和 E 诱导的致癌细胞生长所必需的。此外,它们的增强子结合是增强子激活的先决条件,增强子激活由 eRNA 转录标记,并招募增强子激活机制组件 MED1。TEAD4 在含有活性 ERE 的增强子上的结合不依赖于其 DNA 结合行为,而是通过蛋白连接跨结合发生。我们的数据揭示了 YAP1 和 TEAD4 作为 ERα 共因子在调节癌症生长中的非典型功能,突出了 YAP/TEAD 作为 ERα 乳腺癌可能的可操作药物靶点的潜力。
