The Hippo-YAP pathway is an evolutionally conserved signaling module that controls tissue growth during development and its dysregulation causes cancer1. Core components of the Hippo pathway include a kinase cascade comprising MST1/2 and LATS1/2 kinases, in which MST1/2 phosphorylates and activates...
