Plk2 regulates centriole duplication through phosphorylation-mediated degradation of Fbxw7 (human Cdc4)
15 Feb 2012
Abstract excerpt
Polo-like kinases (Plks) perform crucial functions during mitosis, cytokinesis and centriole duplication. Plk2 is activated in early G1 phase and is involved in the reproduction of centrosomes. However, the mechanisms underlying Plk2-induced centriole duplication are incompletely understood. Here, we show that Plk2 directly targets the F-box protein F-box/WD repeat-containing protein 7 (Fbxw7), which is a...
