Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: TAZ/WWTR1 Antibody [NB110-58359] - IHC analysis of formalin fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) human kidney using TAZ/WWTR1 antibody at 1:500 on a Bond Rx autostainer (Leica Biosystems). The assay involved 20 minutes of heat induced antigen retrieval (HIER) using 10mM sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) and endogenous peroxidase quenching with peroxide block. The sections were incubated with primary antibody for 30 minutes and Bond Polymer Refine Detection (Leica Biosystems) with DAB was used for signal development followed by counterstaining with hematoxylin. Whole slide scanning and capturing of representative images was performed using Aperio AT2 (Leica Biosystems). Nuclear and cytoplasmic staining was observed. Staining was performed by Histowiz.

Background: TAZ/WWTR1

TAZ (transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif) was identified as a binding partner of 14-3-3 family of proteins which contains seven homologous proteins with ability to bind phosphorylated serine with certain sequence motifs, thereby involving in diverse cellular functions such as differentiation, cell cycle progression and apoptosis via their interaction with diverse intracellular phosphoproteins involved in signaling networks. TAZ is homologous to YAP and displays transcriptional co-activator function via interaction with PPXY-containing transcriptional factors through its WW domain. Several transcriptional factors such as Runx/PEBP2, AP2, C/EBP, c-Jun, Krox-20, Krox-24, MEF2B, NF-E2, Oct-4 and p73 containing proline-rich PPXY motif have been proposed as TAZ's interacting partners. TAZ is also a major target of the Hippo core kinase cascade which regulates organ size control as well as stem cell properties by governing cell proliferation and apoptosis processes. Hippo mediated phosphorylation of YAP and TAZ leads to their sequestration into the cytoplasm by interaction with 14-3-3 proteins and ubiquitination-dependent proteosomal degradation, thereby governing its distribution, protein levels and functionality. TAZ interacts primarily with transcriptional factors TEAD1-4 (TEADs) and activates expression of target genes such as CTGF, IGFBP3, ITGB2, Birc5/Survivin, Gli2, and Axl.
