TAK1 associates with and phosphorylates YAP/TAZ independent of LATS1/2. a Western blot analysis of YAP and TAZ in WT and LATS1/2 DKO HEK293A cells treated with TNFα and MG132 as indicated. b Western blot analysis of lysate of HEK293A cells transfected with Flag-tagged YAP and indicated kinases. c Phos-tag SDS-PAGE analysis of lysate of HEK293T cells transfected with Flag-tagged YAP and indicated kinases. d Western blot analysis of lysate of HEK293T cells transfected with Flag-tagged YAP or YAP5SA and indicated kinases. e Western blot analysis of lysate of WT and LATS1/2 DKO HEK293A cells transfected with Flag-tagged YAP-5SA mutant with indicated kinases. f Immunoprecipitation assay using anti-YAP antibody to detect endogenous complex of YAP and TAK1 in HEK293T cells. g Immunoprecipitation assay of Flag-tagged TAK1 or YAP protein expressed in HEK293T cells. h, i Wild-type, TAK1-KD and YAP purified from HEK293T cells (h) or recombinant GST-YAP from E.coli (i) were used for in vitro kinase assay. j Purified LATS1, wild-type and kinase-dead TAK1 from HEK293T cells, and recombinant GST-YAP were used for in vitro kinase assay. k Western blot analysis of cell lysate of wild-type and LATS1/2 DKO HEK293A cells transfected with wild-type or TAK1-KD and Flag-tagged YAP plasmids. All experiments were repeated three times independently
