Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.3.0)
Enables several functions, including RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; proline-rich region binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Involved in several processes, including cardiac muscle tissue regeneration; interleukin-6-mediated signaling pathway; and positive regulation of Notch signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial cell differentiation; regulation of epithelial cell differentiation; and tube morphogenesis. Located in cell-cell junction; cytosol; and membrane. Part of TEAD-YAP complex. Is active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; early conceptus; eye; and ovary. Used to study cone dystrophy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in uveal coloboma-cleft lip and palate-intellectual disability. Orthologous to human YAP1 (Yes1 associated transcriptional regulator).
