YAP/TAZ interacts with RBM39 to confer resistance against indisulam.

ABSTRACT: The Hippo pathway and its downstream effectors, Yes-associated protein/transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (YAP/TAZ), are essential for cell growth and organ development. Emerging evidence revealed that the Hippo pathway and YAP/TAZ are frequently dysregulated by multiple genetic alterations in solid cancers including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC); however, the YAP/TAZ-nuclear interactome remains unclear. RNA-binding motif protein 39 (RBM39) enhances transcriptional activity of several transcription factors and also regulates mRNA splicing. Indisulam degrading RBM39 induces alternative splicing, leading to cell death. However, clinical trials of indisulam have failed to show effectiveness. Therefore, clarifying the resistance mechanism against splicing inhibi
