TEAD is required for DNA repair independent of its transcriptional function

ABSTRACT: The TEA domain family members 1-4 (TEADs) are major transcription factors for YAP/TAZ transcription activators in the Hippo pathway, regulating many biological processes, including development, tissue homeostasis, and tumorigenesis through target genes. Their amplification/upregulation correlates with poor prognosis in cancer patients. Although the Hippo pathway continues to be elucidated, it is clear that TEAD largely exerts its actions via transcriptional regulation. Here, we uncover an unexpected role for TEADs in the DNA damage response. Using comparative mass spectrometry, we demonstrate that TEADs interact with several DNA repair proteins. We further show that TEADs form DNA damage-induced nuclear foci that co-localize with DNA damage markers. We also found that TEADs are required for resistance to DNA damage, maintaining genome stability, and resolution of double strand break repair that is independent from the Hippo pathway and its transcriptional role. Our results establish a new role for TEADs in DNA repair and therefore, highlight a critical consideration in therapeutically targeting the Hippo pathway.

Regulation of gene expression by the Hippo effectors, Taz and Yap, in muscle stem cells

Project description:The Hippo pathway downstream effectors, Yap and Taz, play key roles in cell proliferation and tissue growth, regulating gene expression especially via interaction with Tead transcription factors. To investigate their role in skeletal muscle stem cells, we analysed gene expression changes driven by Taz and compared these to Yap mediated changes to the transcriptome by measurement of gene expression on Affymetrix microarrays. To interrogate overlapping and unique transcriptional changes driven by these Hippo effectors, satellite cell-derived myoblasts were transduced with constitutively active TAZ S89A or YAP S127A retrovirus for 24h or 48h, with empty retrovirus as control. Triplicate microarray analyses of empty vector controls, hYAP1 S127A and TAZ S89A transgenic primary myoblasts were conducted.

Transcriptional targets of Hippo signaling in mammalian cells

Project description:The Hippo pathway is an emerging signaling cascade involved in the regulation of organ size control. It consists of evolutionally conserved protein kinases that are sequentially phosphorylated and activated. The active Hippo pathway subsequently phosphorylates a transcription coactivator, YAP, which precludes its nuclear localization and transcriptional activation. Identification of transcriptional targets of YAP in diverse cellular contexts is therefore critical to the understanding of the molecular mechanisms in which the Hippo pathway restricts tissue growth. We used microarrays to profile the gene expression patterns upon acute siRNA knockdown of Hippo pathway components in multiple mammalian cell lines and identified a set of genes representing immediate transcriptional targets of the Hippo/Yap signaling pathway. Three mammalian cell lines (HEK293T, HepG2, HaCaT) were transfected with scramble siRNA controls or siRNAs against NF2 and LATS2, two core components of the Hippo pathway, simultaneously. Total RNAs were harvested four days after transfection to reveal the gene expression pattern unsing microarry. YAP and TAZ siRNAs were also transfected along with NF2 and LATS2 siRNAs to identify YAP/TAZ-dependent transcriptional targets upon loss of NF2/LATS2.

The Hippo Pathway Prevents YAP/TAZ–Driven Hypertranscription and Controls Neural Progenitor Number [RNA-seq]

Project description:The Hippo pathway controls the activity of YAP/TAZ transcriptional coactivators through a kinase cascade. Despite the critical role of this pathway in tissue growth and tumorigenesis, it is not fully understood how YAP/TAZ–mediated transcription drives proliferation. By analyzing the effects of inactivating LATS1/2 kinases, the direct upstream inhibitors of YAP/TAZ, on mouse brain development and applying cell-number–normalized transcriptome analysis, we discovered that YAP/TAZ activation causes a global increase in transcription activity, known as hypertranscription, and upregulates many genes associated with increased biosynthetic capacity and proliferation. In contrast, conventional read-depth–normalized RNA-sequencing analysis failed to detect the scope of the transcriptome shift and missed most relevant gene ontologies. Hypertranscription in neural progenitors inhibits differentiation and triggers DNA replication stress, DNA damage, and p53 activation, resulting in massive apoptosis. Our findings reveal the remarkable impact of YAP/TAZ activation on global transcription activity and have important implications for understanding YAP/TAZ function.

A chaperone-like function of FUS ensures TAZ condensates dynamics and transcriptional activation

Project description:The Hippo pathway plays important roles in organ development, tissue homeostasis, and tumor growth, and its downstream effector TAZ is a transcriptional coactivator that promotes target gene expression through the formation of biomolecular condensates. However, the mechanisms that regulate the biophysical properties of TAZ condensates to enable Hippo signaling are not well understood. Here, using chemical cross-linking combined with an unbiased proteomic approach, we show that FUS associates with TAZ condensates and exerts a chaperone-like effect to maintain their proper liquidity and robust- transcriptional activity. Mechanistically, the low complexity sequence domain of FUS targets the coiled-coil domain of TAZ in a phosphorylation-regulated manner, which ensures the liquidity and dynamicity of TAZ condensates. In cells lacking FUS, TAZ condensates transition into gel/solid-like assembles with immobilized TAZ, leading to reduced expression of target genes and inhibition of pro-tumorigenic activity. Thus, our findings identify a chaperone-like function of FUS in Hippo regulation and demonstrate that appropriate biophysical properties of transcriptional condensates are essential for gene activation.

YAP/TAZ control peripheral myelination by regulating Schwann cell proliferation and the expression of laminin receptors

Project description:Myelination is essential for nervous system function. Schwann cells interact with neurons and with the basal lamina to sort and myelinate axons, using known receptors and signaling pathways. In contrast, the transcriptional control of axonal sorting and the role of mechano-transduction in myelination are largely unknown. Yap and Taz are effectors of the Hippo pathway that integrate chemical and mechanical signals in cells. Here, we describe a previously unknown role for the Hippo pathway in myelination. Using conditional mutagenesis in mice we show that Taz is required in Schwann cells for radial sorting and myelination. Yap is redundant with Taz as ablation of both Yap and Taz abolishes radial sorting. Yap/Taz regulate Schwann cell proliferation and transcription of basal lamina receptors, both necessary for proper radial sorting of axons, and subsequent myelination. These data link transcriptional effectors of the Hippo pathway and of mechanotransduction to myelin formation in Schwann cells.

The effect of YAP/TAZ knockdown on the intestinal epithelium

Project description:The Hippo pathway plays a crucial in organ size control during development and tissue homeostasis in adult life. To examine a role for Hippo signaling in the intestinal epithelium, we analyzed gene expression patterns in the mouse intestinal epithelilum transfected with siRNAs or expression plasmids for shRNAs targeting the Hippo pathway effectors, YAP and TAZ. We performed two independent series of experiments (siGFP (n=3) vs siYAP/siTAZ (n=3), and shLacZ (n=1) vs shYAP/shTAZ (n=1)). Control siRNA (siGFP), YAP/TAZ siRNAs, or expression plasmids for control shRNA (shLacZ) or YAP/TAZ shRNAs were introduced into the mouse intestinal epithelium by the newly-developed in vivo transfection method. Four days after transfection, intestinal epithelial cells were isolated from the tissues and total RNA was extracted.

Functional characterizations of the Hippo pathway effectors YAP and TAZ

Project description:The Hippo pathway plays an important role in regulating tissue homeostasis, and its effectors YAP and TAZ are responsible for mediating the vast majority of its physiological functions. Although YAP and TAZ are thought to be largely redundant and similarly regulated by Hippo signaling, they have developmental, structural, and physiological differences which suggest there may be differences in their regulation and downstream functions. To better understand the functions of YAP and TAZ in the Hippo pathway, we generated knockout cells and evaluated them in response to many conditions and stimuli. Here, we used RNA-seq to identify and compare differences in the transcriptional profiles between the YAP and TAZ.

A novel irreversible TEAD inhibitor, SWTX-143, blocks the Hippo pathway and causes tumor regression in preclinical mesothelioma models [SubQ]

Project description:The Hippo pathway and its downstream effectors, the YAP and TAZ transcriptional coactivators, are deregulated in multiple different types of human cancer and are required for cancer cell phenotypes in vitro and in vivo, while largely dispensable for tissue homeostasis in adult mice. YAP/TAZ and their partner transcription factors, the TEAD1-4 factors, are therefore promising anti-cancer targets. Due to frequent YAP/TAZ hyperactivation caused by mutations in the Hippo pathway components NF2 and Lats2, mesothelioma is one of the prime cancer types predicted to be responsive to YAP/TAZ-TEAD inhibitor treatment. Mesothelioma is a devastating disease for which currently no effective treatment options exist. Here, we describe a novel covalent YAP/TAZ-TEAD inhibitor, SWTX-143, that binds to the palmitoylation pocket of all TEAD isoforms. SWTX-143 caused irreversible and specific inhibition of the transcriptional activity of YAP/TAZ-TEAD in Hippo-mutant tumor cell lines. More importantly, YAP/TAZ-TEAD inhibitor treatment caused strong mesothelioma regression in human subcutaneous xenograft models and in an orthotopic mesothelioma mouse model. Finally, SWTX-143 also selectively impaired the growth of NF2-mutant kidney cancer cell lines, suggesting that the exquisite sensitivity of mesothelioma to these YAP/TAZ-TEAD inhibitors can be extended to other tumor types with aberrations in Hippo signaling. In brief, we describe a novel and specific YAP/TAZ-TEAD inhibitor that has great potential to treat multiple Hippo-mutant solid tumor types.
