General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) is a core regulator of mitosis required for centrosome maturation, bipolar spindle formation, chromosome arm resolution, chromosome alignment and segregation, and cytokinesis. Protein kinase signaling along the kinetochore-centromere axis is crucial to assure mitotic fidelity. Deep within the centromere, Plk1 operates to assure proper chromosome alignment and segregation. Plk1 is recruited to the outer kinetochore by Bub1, NudC, and BubR1, where it phosphorylates BubR1 and CLASP to stabilize kinetochore-microtubule attachments, promoting chromosome alignment, and Kif2b to correct microtubule attachment errors, facilitating accurate chromosome segregation. At the inner kinetochore, Plk1's role in chromosome alignment and segregation also requires recruitment by and phosphorylation of CENP-U/50 (also called PBIP) and CENP-Q. Plk1 operates in pools within the kinetochore and the bulk pool is at the inner kinetochore/centromere, and it operates at chromatin and in the inner centromere in a manner that is distinct and separable from Plk1’s role in stabilizing microtubule attachments at the outer kinetochore Homo sapiens
