Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionyap-1 encodes a protein with sequence similarity to YAP (yes-associated protein) in its N-terminal TEAD-binding domain and WW domain; YAP-1 plays a role in the response to heat and in determination of adult life span; YAP-1 physically interacts with EGL-44, a transcription enhancer factor of the TEA domain (TEAD) class, and when co-expressed, the two proteins are able to activate a TEAD reporter; YAP-1 also physically interacts with WTS-1, the C. elegans LATS ortholog; YAP-1 is broadly expressed throughout development and found in a number of different tissues including epithelia, hypodermis, muscles, pharynx, intestine, gonadal sheath cells, vulval, and the spermatheca; YAP-1 mainly localizes to the cytoplasm and, during specific developmental events, to the nucleus; YAP-1 cytoplasmic localization is regulated by WTS-1, and the 14-3-3 protein FTT-2; in response to heat, YAP-1 transiently accumulates in the nucleus, with subsequent translocation to the cytoplasm dependent on the DAF-21 HSP90 and HSF-1 heat shock factor.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00041976

Automated_descriptionEnables RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in establishment of cell polarity and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in axoneme; ciliary base; and nucleus. Part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Expressed in several structures, including excretory system; hermaphrodite gonad; pharyngeal muscle cell; tail hypodermis; and vulva. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal cancer and uveal coloboma-cleft lip and palate-intellectual disability. Is an ortholog of human WWTR1 (WW domain containing transcription regulator 1) and YAP1 (Yes1 associated transcriptional regulator).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (13)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
