Polo-like kinase 4 kinase activity limits centrosome overduplication by autoregulating its own stability
Accurate control of the number of centrosomes, the major microtubule-organizing centers of animal cells, is critical for the maintenance of genome integrity. Abnormalities in centrosome number can promote errors in spindle formation that lead to subsequent chromosome missegregation, and extra centrosomes are found in many cancers. Centrosomes are comprised of a pair of centrioles surrounded by ...
متن کاملThe autoregulated instability of Polo-like kinase 4 limits centrosome duplication to once per cell cycle.
Centrioles organize the centrosome, and accurate control of their number is critical for the maintenance of genomic integrity. Centriole duplication occurs once per cell cycle and is controlled by Polo-like kinase 4 (Plk4). We showed previously that Plk4 phosphorylates itself to promote its degradation by the proteasome. Here we demonstrate that this autoregulated instability controls the abund...
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 کاملTwo Polo-like kinase 4 binding domains in Asterless perform distinct roles in regulating kinase stability
Plk4 (Polo-like kinase 4) and its binding partner Asterless (Asl) are essential, conserved centriole assembly factors that induce centriole amplification when overexpressed. Previous studies found that Asl acts as a scaffolding protein; its N terminus binds Plk4's tandem Polo box cassette (PB1-PB2) and targets Plk4 to centrioles to initiate centriole duplication. However, how Asl overexpression...
متن کاملContinuous polo-like kinase 1 activity regulates diffusion to maintain centrosome self-organization during mitosis.
Whether mitotic structures like the centrosome can self-organize from the regulated mobility of their dynamic protein components remains unclear. Here, we combine fluorescence spectroscopy and chemical genetics to study in living cells the diffusion of polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1), an enzyme critical for centrosome maturation at the onset of mitosis. The cytoplasmic diffusion of a functional EGFP-...
