Scientific Background: Plk4 (SAK) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the Other group and Plk family. It has a key function in centriole duplication through the recruitment of the centriole biogenesis proteins SASS6, CENPJ/CPAP, CCP110, CEP135, and gamma-tubulin. When overexpressed, it is able to induce centrosome amplification through the simultaneous generation of multiple procentrioles adjoining each parental centriole during S phase. It phosphorylates S151 of FBXW5 during the G1/S transition, leading to inhibit FBXW5 ability to ubiquitinate SASS6. It is involved in trophoblast differentiation by phosphorylating HAND1, leading to disrupt the interaction between HAND1 and MDFIC and activation of HAND1. It also phosphorylates CDC25C and Chk2 (CHEK2). Its central role in centriole replication indicates that it may have a possible role in tumourigenesis, as centrosome aberrations are frequently observed in tumours.
