Plk4 Regulates Cell Motility through Arhgef1 and Rho GTPase Activation

open access: yes, 2019
Cell migration is a fundamental process essential for embryogenesis, immune cell function and maintenance of homeostasis. It is driven primarily by polymerization of the actin cytoskeleton, which is regulated by a family of small Rho GTPases. Rho GTPases

The SCFSlimb ubiquitin ligase regulates Plk4/Sak levels to block centriole reduplication

open access: yes, 2009
Restricting centriole duplication to once per cell cycle is critical for chromosome segregation and genomic stability, but the mechanisms underlying this block to reduplication are unclear.

Atypical function of a centrosomal module in WNT signalling drives contextual cancer cell motility

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Centrosomes control cell motility, polarity and migration that is thought to be mediated by their microtubule-organizing capacity. Here we demonstrate that WNT signalling drives a distinct form of non-directional cell motility that requires a key ...

DNA replication licensing factor Cdc6 and Plk4 kinase antagonistically regulate centrosome duplication via Sas-6

open access: yes, 2017
Centrosome number is tightly controlled during the cell cycle to ensure proper spindle assembly and cell division. However, the underlying mechanism that controls centrosome number remains largely unclear.

Developmental Role of plk4 in Xenopus laevis and Danio rerio: implications for Seckel Syndrome

open access: yes, 2015
The polo-like kinases are a family of conserved serine/threonine kinases that play multiple roles in regulation of the cell cycle. Unlike its four other family members, the role of Plk4 in embryonic development has not been well characterized.

Plk4 trans-autophosphorylation regulates centriole number by controlling betaTrCP-mediated degradation

open access: yes, 2010
Centrioles are the main constituents of the mammalian centrosome and act as basal bodies for ciliogenesis. Centrosomes organize the cytoplasmic microtubule network during interphase and the mitotic spindle during mitosis, and aberrations in centrosome ...

Centrosome amplification and aneuploidy driven by the HIV-1-induced Vpr•VprBP•Plk4 complex in CD4+ T cells

open access: yesNature Communications
HIV-1 infection elevates the risk of developing various cancers, including T-cell lymphoma. Whether HIV-1-encoded proteins directly contribute to oncogenesis remains unknown.
