Abstract
The Hippo signaling pathway, which is highly conserved in organisms ranging from Drosophila to mammals, plays a key role in organ size control, cellular proliferation, survival and tumorigenesis1 Yes-associated protein (YAP) is the major downstream effector of Hippo signaling pathway and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) is a YAP paralog. Recently, Zhang et al. found that YAP/TAZ acts as natural inhibitors of TANK binding kinase 1 (TBK1), which is a key component for cytosolic nucleic acid sensing antiviral defense and antiviral physiology2 This article is protected by copyright.
