Background

The transcriptional coactivator Yes-associated protein (YAP), also known as Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1), Yes-Associated Protein YAP65 Homolog, Protein Yorkie Homolog and YAP65 has a theoretical molecular weight of 65 kDa. The YAP1 gene encodes the human ortholog of chicken YAP protein which binds to the SH3 domain of the Yes proto-oncogene product. YAP1 shares homology with the WW domain of transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ), which functions as a transcriptional co-activator by binding to the PPXY motif present in transcription factors and is likely involved in protein-protein interaction. YAP has been identified as a core regulatory mechanism that blocks mammalian glial cell proliferation and cellular reprogramming following damage (1).

YAP plays a role in the development and progression of multiple cancers as a transcriptional regulator of the Hippo signaling pathway. YAP1 encodes a nuclear effector of the Hippo signaling pathway which is involved in development, growth, repair, and homeostasis to play a pivotal role in controlling cell growth and organ size and has emerged as a key player in tumor suppression (2,3). Deregulation of the Hippo pathway causes tumor formation and malignancy, with YAP being a key oncogenic driver in liver carcinogenesis (2) and may function as a potential target for cancer treatment (3).

1. What is the difference between the Quantikine and Duoset ELISA kits?
   • Our Quantikine kits are fully optimized and validated for the sample types listed on the product specific webpage and datasheet, as this can vary between kits. Each kit is supplied ready to use with one pre-coated 96-well plate, a detection antibody directly conjugated to HRP, and all other necessary reagents. These kits are ideal for researchers who want the convenience of a ready to use and optimized ELISA product. Some of these kits are also available prepackaged in larger 6 and 50 plate sizes.Our DuoSet Kits, in contrast, are ELISA development kits containing the capture and detection antibody, the mass-value calibrated standard, and streptavidin-HRP to prepare approximately 5 or 15 plates. Ancillary reagents will need to be used/purchased, and for most kits, we will recommend one of our Ancillary Reagent Kits, which contain the reagents we use ourselves in-house. DuoSet kits are validated only for cell culture supernatant samples and therefore require further development and validation for accurate measurement in more complex samples such as serum and plasma. Our DuoSet Kits offer an economical, flexible alternative for the experienced ELISA user.
