| Description | Anti-phospho-PLK1 (Ser137) Antibody |
| Alternate Names |
|
| Background Information | Polo-like Kinase 1 (PLK1) is a serine/threonine-protein kinase that performs several important functions throughout M phase of the cell cycle, including the regulation of centrosome maturation and spindle assembly, the removal of cohesins from chromosome arms, the inactivation of APC/C inhibitors, and the regulation of mitotic exit and cytokinesis. Expressed PLK protein accumulates to a maximum during the G2 and M phases, declines to a nearly undetectable level following mitosis and throughout G1 phase, and then begins to accumulate again during S phase. |

| UniProt Summary | FUNCTION: Serine/threonine-protein kinase that performs several important functions throughout M phase of the cell cycle, including the regulation of centrosome maturation and spindle assembly, the removal of cohesins from chromosome arms, the inactivation of APC/C inhibitors, and the regulation of mitotic exit and cytokinesis. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein. ENZYME REGULATION: Activated by serine and threonine phosphorylation. SUBUNIT STRUCTURE: Interacts with CEP170 and EVI5. Interacts and phosphorylates ERCC6L. Interacts with FAM29A. Interacts with BTBD12/SLX4. Ref.11 Ref.12 Ref.13 Ref.14 Ref.18 SUBCELLULAR LOCATION:Nucleus. TISSUE SPECIFICITY:Placenta and colon. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE:Accumulates to a maximum during the G2 and M phases, declines to a nearly undetectable level following mitosis and throughout G1 phase, and then begins to accumulate again during S phase. INDUCTION: By growth-stimulating agents. PTM: Catalytic activity is enhanced by phosphorylation of Thr-210 and/or Ser-137.Autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of Ser-137 are not significant events during activation of PLK1 in M phase. SEQUENCE SIMILARITIES: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. CDC5/Polo subfamily. Contains 2 POLO box domains. Contains 1 protein kinase domain. |
