Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we have revealed that PI3-kinase-Akt/PKB signaling pathway is essential for proper mitotic progression. In mitosis, Akt kinase activity is responsible for Plk1 (Polo-like kinase 1) phosphorylation at Ser-99. This phosphorylation creates the docking site of 14-3-3 gamma and elevates the Plk1 kinase activity, thereby regulating the metaphase-anaphase transition. We further show that ubiquitin-proteasome system controls primary cilia formation. In response to serum starvation, the ubiquitin E3 ligase CRL3-KCTD17 induces polyubiqutination-dependent degradation of trichoplein, one of the most important negative regulator of ciliogenesis. The trichoplein degradation attenuates the kinase activity of Aurora A, and thereby triggers ciliogenesis.
