Posttranslational modifications of YAP/TAZ: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities.
Review in Cellular & molecular biology letters, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Yes-associated protein (YAP) and its paralog, transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ), are critical effectors of the Hippo pathway, as well as other biochemical and biophysical signals. Through their interaction with DNA-binding partners, YAP/TAZ can modulate the transcription of many genes critical for organ size regulation and tissue homeostasis maintenance. Aberrant expression or activation of YAP/TAZ is implicated in the pathogenesis of many cancers and noncancerous diseases. Notably, their functional outputs demonstrate remarkable diversity, with context-dependent roles emerging across distinct disease models and tissue microenvironments. Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) exert profound impacts on the stability, subcellular localization, and function of YAP/TAZ. The canonical Hippo pathway-mediated phosphorylation and ubiquitination have been well characterized as mechanisms that downregulate YAP/TAZ stability and transcriptional activity. Recent studies have identified novel phosphorylation sites, atypical ubiquitination patterns, along with ubiquitin-like modifications, glycosylation, methylation, acetylation, and lactylation on YAP/TAZ. These PTMs exhibit dynamic regulation in response to microenvironmental stimuli, providing molecular insights into the context-dependent functional versatility of YAP/TAZ. This review systematically synthesizes current understanding of YAP/TAZ PTM networks and discusses their therapeutic implications.
