Loss of Mob1a/b in mice results in chondrodysplasia due to YAP1/TAZ-TEADs-dependent repression of SOX9

Hippo signaling is modulated in response to cell density, external mechanical forces, or rigidity of the extracellular matrix (ECM). The Mps one binder kinase activator (MOB) adaptor proteins are core components of Hippo signaling and have important effects on Yes-associated protein-1 (YAP1) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ), which are potent transcriptional regulators. YAP1/TAZ are key contributors to cartilage and...
