Figure Lengend Snippet: α2,3-sialylation regulates the Hippo pathway through competing with α2,6-sialylation. A, the cell lysates from ST3GAL4-3xFLAG-overexpressing (ST3GAL4-OE) MDA-MB-231 cells were immunoblotted with anti-p-YAP S127, anti-YAP, anti-p-LATS1 T1079, anti-LATS1, anti-FLAG, anti-ST6GAL1, and anti-GAPDH antibodies. B, the cell membrane fractions from Con and ST3GAL4-OE cells were blotted with ConA, RCA-I (recognizing terminal galactose), MAA, and SNA lectins. C, cell lysates from the MDA-MB-231 derivative cell lines as indicated (The ST6GAL1 KO + ST3GAL4 OE stable cell line was established by overexpressing ST3GAL4 in ST6GAL1 KO cells.) were immunoblotted with indicated antibodies as mentioned in ( A ). The relative ratios (phospho-YAP and phospho-LATS1 versus YAP and LATS1) in ( A ) and ( C ) are shown as the mean ± SD ( n = 3 biological replicates, n.s. not statistically significant, p > 0.05, ∗∗∗, p < 0.001, ∗∗∗∗, p < 0.0001 are determined by two-tail unpaired t test and one-way ANOVA with Tukey's post hoc test, respectively). D, the cell membrane fractions from the cells mentioned in ( C ) were blotted with ConA, RCA-I, MAA, and SNA lectins.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Schematic diagram of the proposed molecular mechanism for negative regulation of Hippo signaling via ST6GAL1. Various upstream cell membrane receptors of the Hippo pathway have been identified, including the RTKs ( e.g. , EGFR), GPCRs ( e.g. , LPAR4), and integrins ( e.g. , integrin α5β1). The RTK, GPCR, and integrin signals transduced by growth factors (GFs, e.g. , EGF), extracellular factors ( e.g. , LPA), and the extracellular matrix (ECM, e.g. , FN) can facilitate Hippo pathway effectors ( e.g. , PI3K and FAK) association, which promote LATS1/2-mediated regulation of YAP. In the cells with ST6GAL1 expression ( left ), the cell membrane receptors, such as EGFR, LPAR4, and integrin α5β1, are modified by α2,6-sialylation, which mediate the integrin β1–EGFR/LPAR4 complex formation and in turn facilitate their responses to EGF, LPA, and FN, respectively. These signalings inactivate LATS1/2 kinases or induce the dephosphorylation of YAP, finally leading to hypophosphorylated YAP (p-YAP S127). Hypophosphorylated YAP accumulates in the nucleus, where it can bind to various transcription factors (TFs, e.g. , TEAD family) to enhance the expression of target genes ( e.g. , ANKRD1 , CTGF , and CYR61 ) expression that promote cell adhesion, spreading, proliferation, migration, and metastasis. The Hippo signaling can be inhibited by the verteporfin (VP) inhibitor, which targets YAP-TEAD activity. In the ST6GAL1 deficiency cells ( right ), the N -glycans on cell membrane receptors are without α2,6-sialylation, which exhibit weak integrin β1–EGFR/LPAR4 complex formation and delayed responses to EGF, LPA, and FN stimulation and activate the LATS1/2 kinases and phosphorylate YAP on S127. The phosphorylated YAP (p-YAP S127) is retained in the cytoplasm, inhibiting YAP/TEAD-dependent transcription. The p of the red background represents the activation of related proteins, while gray background represents the inactivation. LATS, large tumor suppressor kinase; YAP, yes-associated protein; ST6GAL1, β-galactoside α2,6-sialyltransferase 1; RTK, receptor tyrosine kinase; EGF, epidermal growth factor; EGFR, epidermal growth factor receptor; FN, fibronectin; GPCR, G protein–coupled receptor; GT, glycosyltransferase; LPA, lysophosphatidic acid; FAK, focal adhesion kinase.
