| Antigen Alias | plk, plx1, Plx1, PLK-1 |
| Product description | Considerable evidence indicates that a Polo-Like Kinase (PLK) plays an important role in cell cycle regulation. PLK is also required for bipolar spindle formation, activation of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome, and cytokinesis. Recent work led to the identification of a PLKK that is thought to be responsible for activation of PLK. Recent work (Erikson, et al., 2004) has shown that PLKK is in turn activated by phosphorylation at three sites (Ser482, Ser486 and Ser490). Thus activation of PLK is thought to involve a kinase cascade involving the phosphorylation of Ser482,486,490 in PLKK.1) van Vugt, M.A.T.M., van de Weerdt, B.C.M., Vader, G., Janssen, H., Calafat, J., Klompmaker, R., Wolthuis, R.M.F., and Medema, R.H., "Polo-like Kinase-1 Is Required for Bipolar Spindle Formation but Is Dispensable for Anaphase Promoting Complex/Cdc20 Activation and Initiation of Cytokinesis," J.

| Form | Liquid |
|---|---|
| Storage Instructions | For long term storage –80˚C is recommended, but shorter term storage at –20˚C is also acceptable as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to the presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for one year. |
| Storage Buffer | 100 uL in 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 ug per mL BSA and 50% glycerol. |
