Unlabelled: Opposite expression and pro- or anti-cancer function of YAP and its paralog TAZ/WWTR1 stratify cancers into binary YAPon and YAPoff classes. These transcriptional coactivators are oncogenic in YAPon cancers. In contrast, YAP/TAZ are silenced epigenetically along with their integrin and extracellular matrix adhesion target genes in neural and neuroendocrine YAPoff cancers (e.
