  • hippo signaling cascade
  • hippo signaling pathway
  • hippo signalling cascade
  • Salvador-Warts-Hippo signaling pathway
  • SWH pathway
Definition
An intracellular signaling cascade that starts with the activation of hippo (STK4/MST1 and STK3/MST2 in mammals and hpo kinase in Drosophila). Hippo then phosphorylates LATS1/2, which in turn phosphoylates the transcriptional co-activator YAP1 (yki in Drosophila), leading to its cytosolic retention and/or degradation. (3)
