Autophagy-Dependent Regulation of YAP1 by STK38 Governs Recruitment of Differentiated Cells as Progenitor Cells During Regeneration

Yongji Zeng, Yang‐Zhe Huang, Qing Kay Li, Raymond Y. Ho, Steven J. Bark, Spencer G. Willet, Richard J. DiPaolo, Jason C. Mills

The paper identifies STK38 as a YAP1 kinase that regulates paligenosis by autophagy-dependent degradation, enabling differentiated cells to act as progenitors during tissue regeneration.
