Descriptions

Polo-like kinase Plk1 acts at various stages in cell cycle specifically mitosis and cytokinesis. The kinase activity is regulated by a conserved C-terminal domain, termed the polo box domain (PBD). PBD is composed of the two polo boxes and an N-terminal extension and each polo box contains a continuous six-stranded antiparallel β-sheet and an α-helix. The C-terminal region containing a polo-box domain is involved in autoinhibition via intramolecular intereraction with the kinase domain in PLK1.

15 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
centriolar satellite A small (70-100 nm) cytoplasmic granule that contains a number of centrosomal proteins; centriolar satellites traffic toward microtubule minus ends and are enriched near the centrosome.
centriole A cellular organelle, found close to the nucleus in many eukaryotic cells, consisting of a small cylinder with microtubular walls, 300-500 nm long and 150-250 nm in diameter. It contains nine short, parallel, peripheral microtubular fibrils, each fibril consisting of one complete microtubule fused to two incomplete microtubules. Cells usually have two centrioles, lying at right angles to each other. At division, each pair of centrioles generates another pair and the twin pairs form the pole of the mitotic spindle.
centrosome A structure comprised of a core structure (in most organisms, a pair of centrioles) and peripheral material from which a microtubule-based structure, such as a spindle apparatus, is organized. Centrosomes occur close to the nucleus during interphase in many eukaryotic cells, though in animal cells it changes continually during the cell-division cycle.
chromatin The ordered and organized complex of DNA, protein, and sometimes RNA, that forms the chromosome.
cytoplasm The contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.
kinetochore A multisubunit complex that is located at the centromeric region of DNA and provides an attachment point for the spindle microtubules.
midbody A thin cytoplasmic bridge formed between daughter cells at the end of cytokinesis. The midbody forms where the contractile ring constricts, and may persist for some time before finally breaking to complete cytokinesis.
mitotic spindle pole Either of the ends of a mitotic spindle, a spindle that forms as part of mitosis, where spindle microtubules are organized; usually contains a microtubule organizing center and accessory molecules, spindle microtubules and astral microtubules.
nucleus A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent.
outer kinetochore The region of a kinetochore most external to centromeric DNA; this outer region mediates kinetochore-microtubule interactions.
spindle The array of microtubules and associated molecules that forms between opposite poles of a eukaryotic cell during mitosis or meiosis and serves to move the duplicated chromosomes apart.
spindle microtubule Any microtubule that is part of a mitotic or meiotic spindle; anchored at one spindle pole.
spindle midzone The area in the center of the spindle where the spindle microtubules from opposite poles overlap.
spindle pole Either of the ends of a spindle, where spindle microtubules are organized; usually contains a microtubule organizing center and accessory molecules, spindle microtubules and astral microtubules.
synaptonemal complex A proteinaceous scaffold found between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. It consists of 2 lateral elements and a central element, all running parallel to each other. Transverse filaments connect the lateral elements to the central element.

9 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
anaphase-promoting complex binding Binding to an anaphase-promoting complex. A ubiquitin ligase complex that degrades mitotic cyclins and anaphase inhibitory protein, thereby triggering sister chromatid separation and exit from mitosis.
ATP binding Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
identical protein binding Binding to an identical protein or proteins.
magnesium ion binding Binding to a magnesium (Mg) ion.
microtubule binding Binding to a microtubule, a filament composed of tubulin monomers.
protein kinase binding Binding to a protein kinase, any enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group, usually from ATP, to a protein substrate.
protein serine kinase activity Catalysis of the reactions: ATP + protein serine = ADP + protein serine phosphate.
protein serine/threonine kinase activity Catalysis of the reactions: ATP + protein serine = ADP + protein serine phosphate, and ATP + protein threonine = ADP + protein threonine phosphate.
protein serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase activity Catalysis of the reactions: ATP + a protein serine = ADP + protein serine phosphate; ATP + a protein threonine = ADP + protein threonine phosphate; and ATP + a protein tyrosine = ADP + protein tyrosine phosphate.

31 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
centrosome cycle The cell cycle process in which centrosome duplication and separation takes place. The centrosome cycle can operate with a considerable degree of independence from other processes of the cell cycle.
establishment of mitotic spindle orientation A cell cycle process that sets the alignment of mitotic spindle relative to other cellular structures.
establishment of protein localization The directed movement of a protein to a specific location.
female meiosis chromosome segregation The cell cycle process in which genetic material, in the form of chromosomes, is organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two or more sets during the meiotic cell cycle in a female.
G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle The mitotic cell cycle transition by which a cell in G2 commits to M phase. The process begins when the kinase activity of M cyclin/CDK complex reaches a threshold high enough for the cell cycle to proceed. This is accomplished by activating a positive feedback loop that results in the accumulation of unphosphorylated and active M cyclin/CDK complex.
homologous chromosome segregation The cell cycle process in which replicated homologous chromosomes are organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two sets during the first division of the meiotic cell cycle. Each replicated chromosome, composed of two sister chromatids, aligns at the cell equator, paired with its homologous partner; this pairing off, referred to as synapsis, permits genetic recombination. One homolog (both sister chromatids) of each morphologic type goes into each of the resulting chromosome sets.
microtubule bundle formation A process that results in a parallel arrangement of microtubules.
mitotic cell cycle Progression through the phases of the mitotic cell cycle, the most common eukaryotic cell cycle, which canonically comprises four successive phases called G1, S, G2, and M and includes replication of the genome and the subsequent segregation of chromosomes into daughter cells. In some variant cell cycles nuclear replication or nuclear division may not be followed by cell division, or G1 and G2 phases may be absent.
mitotic cytokinesis A cell cycle process that results in the division of the cytoplasm of a cell after mitosis, resulting in the separation of the original cell into two daughter cells.
mitotic G2 DNA damage checkpoint signaling A mitotic cell cycle checkpoint that detects and negatively regulates progression through the G2/M transition of the cell cycle in response to DNA damage.
mitotic sister chromatid segregation The cell cycle process in which replicated homologous chromosomes are organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two sets during the mitotic cell cycle. Each replicated chromosome, composed of two sister chromatids, aligns at the cell equator, paired with its homologous partner. One homolog of each morphologic type goes into each of the resulting chromosome sets.
mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint signaling A signal transduction process that contributes to a mitotic cell cycle spindle assembly checkpoint, that delays the metaphase/anaphase transition of a mitotic nuclear division until the spindle is correctly assembled and chromosomes are attached to the spindle.
negative regulation of apoptotic process Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cell death by apoptotic process.
negative regulation of cyclin-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activity Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cyclin-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activity.
negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of transcription mediated by RNA polymerase II.
nuclear membrane disassembly The controlled breakdown of the nuclear membranes, for example during cellular division.
peptidyl-serine phosphorylation The phosphorylation of peptidyl-serine to form peptidyl-O-phospho-L-serine.
positive regulation of peptidyl-threonine phosphorylation Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of peptidyl-threonine phosphorylation. Peptidyl-threonine phosphorylation is the phosphorylation of peptidyl-threonine to form peptidyl-O-phospho-L-threonine.
positive regulation of proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the breakdown of a protein or peptide by hydrolysis of its peptide bonds, initiated by the covalent attachment of ubiquitin, and mediated by the proteasome.
positive regulation of ubiquitin protein ligase activity Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of ubiquitin protein ligase activity.
positive regulation of ubiquitin-protein transferase activity Any process that activates, maintains or increases the rate of ubiquitin transferase activity.
protein destabilization Any process that decreases the stability of a protein, making it more vulnerable to degradative processes or aggregation.
protein localization to chromatin Any process in which a protein is transported to, or maintained at, a part of a chromosome that is organized into chromatin.
protein localization to nuclear envelope A process in which a protein is transported to, or maintained at, a location within a nuclear envelope.
protein phosphorylation The process of introducing a phosphate group on to a protein.
protein ubiquitination The process in which one or more ubiquitin groups are added to a protein.
regulation of cytokinesis Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the division of the cytoplasm of a cell and its separation into two daughter cells.
regulation of mitotic spindle assembly Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of mitotic spindle assembly.
regulation of protein binding Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of protein binding.
regulation of protein localization to cell cortex Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of protein localization to cell cortex.
