About PLK1

Cytogenetic location: 16p12.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:23,678,889-23,690,367 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 184 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 20.5), lymph node (RPKM 15.8) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

The Ser/Thr protein kinase encoded by this gene belongs to the CDC5/Polo subfamily. It is highly expressed during mitosis and elevated levels are found in many different types of Cancer. Depletion of this protein in Cancer cells dramatically inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis; hence, it is a target for Cancer therapy. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
