Hippo-like pathways are ancient signalling modules first identified in yeasts. The best-defined metazoan module forms the core of the Hippo pathway, which regulates organ size and cell fate. Hippo-like kinase modules consist of a Sterile 20-like kinase, an NDR kinase and non-catalytic protein scaffolds. In the Hippo pathway, the upstream kinase Hippo can be activated by another kinase, Tao-1. Here, we delineate a related Hippo-like signalling module that Tao-1 regulates to control tracheal morphogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster. Tao-1 activates the Sterile 20-like kinase GckIII by phosphorylating its activation loop, a mode of regulation that is conserved in humans. Tao-1 and GckIII act upstream of the NDR kinase Tricornered to ensure proper tube formation in trachea. Our study reveals that Tao-1 activates two related kinase modules to control both growth and morphogenesis. The Hippo-like signalling pathway we have delineated has a potential role in the human vascular disease cerebral cavernous malformation. Poon et al., describe the discovery of a Hippo-like signaling pathway comprising the kinases Tao-1, GckIII and Tricornered, and its role in tracheal morphogenesis in Drosophila. These discoveries enhance our understanding of tube formation, and have the potential to offer insights into the human vascular disease cerebral cavernous malformation.
