Autoinhibition and relief mechanism for Polo-like kinase 4.
Polo-like kinase 4 (Plk4) is a master regulator of centriole duplication, and its hyperactivity induces centriole amplification. Homodimeric Plk4 has been shown to be ubiquitinated as a result of autophosphorylation, thus promoting its own degradation and preventing centriole amplification. Unlike other Plks, Plk4 contains three rather than two Polo box domains, and the function of its third Po...
متن کاملPolo-like kinase 4 shapes up.
Polo-like kinase 4 (Plk4) is a master regulator of centriole duplication and targets to centrioles through the association of its cryptic polo box domain with centriole receptors. In this issue of Structure, Shimanovskaya and colleagues unveil a new dimeric architecture of Plk4's cryptic polo box that reveals a conserved mechanism for centriole targeting of the kinase.
متن کاملPolo-like kinase 4 inhibition: a strategy for cancer therapy?
In this issue of Cancer Cell, Mason and colleagues describe the development of a Polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4) inhibitor (CFI-400945), with promising activity against tumors formed in mice from patient-derived tumor tissue. A clinical trial has been initiated, but questions remain as to whether PLK4 is the only relevant therapeutic target.
متن کاملAutoinhibition and relief mechanism by the proteolytic processing of Toll-like receptor 8.
Toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8) senses single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) and initiates innate immune responses. TLR8 requires proteolytic cleavage at the loop region (Z-loop) between leucine-rich repeat (LRR) 14 and LRR15 for its activation. However, the molecular basis of Z-loop processing remains unknown. To elucidate the mechanism of Z-loop processing, we performed biochemical and structural studies o...
متن کاملNFκB regulates expression of Polo-like kinase 4
Activation of the NFκB signaling pathway allows the cell to respond to infection and stress and can affect many cellular processes. As a consequence, NFκB activity must be integrated with a wide variety of parallel signaling pathways. One mechanism through which NFκB can exert widespread effects is through controlling the expression of key regulatory kinases. Here we report that NFκB regulates ...
