YAP is a transcriptional co-activator downstream of Hippo pathway that displays oncogenic but also tumour suppressive functions. Here, the authors perform an unbiased genome wide CRISPR screen and identify Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome 1 (TRPS1) that represses YAP/TEAD activity independently of Hippo pathway in breast cancer.
