PLK4 promotes centriole duplication by phosphorylating STIL to link the procentriole cartwheel to the microtubule wall [PDF]
Centrioles play critical roles in organizing the assembly of the mitotic spindle and templating the formation of primary cilia. Centriole duplication occurs once per cell cycle and is regulated by Polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4).

Plk4-dependent phosphorylation of STIL is required for centriole duplication [PDF]
Duplication of centrioles, namely the formation of a procentriole next to the parental centriole, is regulated by the polo-like kinase Plk4. Only a few other proteins, including STIL (SCL/TAL1 interrupting locus, SIL) and Sas-6, are required for the ...

Phase separation of Polo-like kinase 4 by autoactivation and clustering drives centriole biogenesis
Regulation of centriole duplication is essential for normal chromosome segregation and the maintenance of genomic stability, and Polo-like kinase 4 (Plk4) is a known regulator with unclear mechanisms.

STIL binding to Polo-box 3 of PLK4 regulates centriole duplication
Polo-like kinases (PLK) are eukaryotic regulators of cell cycle progression, mitosis and cytokinesis; PLK4 is a master regulator of centriole duplication.

The DNA replication machinery transmits dual signals to prevent unscheduled licensing and execution of centrosome duplication [PDF]
Copy number control of DNA and centrosomes is essential for accurate genetic inheritance. DNA replication and centrosome duplication have been recognized as parallel key events for cell division.

Centriole Duplication: When PLK4 Meets Ana2/STIL [PDF]
Polo-like kinase 4 is known to drive centriole duplication, but the relevant substrate remains elusive. A new study shows that PLK4 phosphorylates a key centriolar component, Ana2/STIL, to initiate centriole assembly.
