Popis: The multi-domain scaffolding protein Scribble (Scrib) regulates cell polarity and growth signaling at cell-cell junctions. In epithelial cancers, Scrib mislocalization and overexpression paradoxically transform Scrib from a basolateral tumor suppressor to a cytosolic driver of tumorigenicity. To address the function of Scrib (mis)localization, a Scrib-HaloTag fusion was genome engineered in polarized epithelial cells. Expression of the epithelial to mesenchymal transcription factor Snail displaced Scrib-HaloTag from cell junctions, mirroring the mislocalization observed in cancers. Interestingly, Snail expression promotes Yes-associated protein-1 (YAP1) nuclear localization independent of hippo pathway-regulated YAP-S127 phosphorylation. Furthermore, Scrib HaloPROTAC degradation attenuates YAP1-Y357 phosphorylation. Halo-ligand affinity purification mass spectrometry analysis identified the Src family kinase YES1 as a mislocalized Scrib interaction partner, preferentially recruiting the kinase active and open global conformation (αC helix in). Altogether, mislocalized Scrib enhances YAP1 phosphorylation by scaffolding active YES1.
