The Warburg effect, the metabolic reprogramming of cancer cell toward aerobic glycolysis, occurs as a consequence of transformation carried out by several oncogenes. Aerobic glycolysis represents a metabolism particularly suited for cell growth, because it couples energy production to availability of chemical precursors for the biosynthesis of the main macromolecules (dNTPs, aminoacids and lipids). Metabolic reprogramming is usually considered as a simple phenotypic endpoint that occurs as a consequence of tumor formation. Growing evidences indicate, however, that metabolism on its turn can su

YAP and TAZ are transcriptional coactivators that play a central role in cancer initiation and growth. Despite being widespread activated in a number of human malignancies, YAP/TAZ aberrant triggering is rarely due to genetic alteration, but it is likely occurring as a consequence of mis-regulation of the complex network of signaling pathways that converge on these factors. We thus asked if recurrent oncogenic lesions, that are considered as tumorigenic drivers, might work though YAP/TAZ to induce cell transformation.

Target proteins are synthesized in a reaction tube together with cell extract, amino acids, energy source, and DNA. This reaction is versatile, and dynamic optimizations of the reaction conditions can be performed. The "œopen" nature of CFPS makes it a compelling candidate for many technologies and applications. This dissertation reports new and innovative applications of CFPS including 1) enzyme encapsulation in a virus-like particle, 2) detection

Abstract:
This thesis is divided in three sections; the main project is described in the first part, while additional projects are developed in two appendixes. In the main project we studied YAP, the downstream effector of the Hippo pathway, a transcriptional co-factor that plays a fundamental role in de-differentiation, cell proliferation and transformation. While its upstream regulation has been extensively studied, its role as transcriptional co-factor is still poorly understood. We show that YAP co-adjuvates the transcriptional responses of Myc oncogene to promote cell proliferation and transfor
