Entrez Gene summary for PLK2 Gene:
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the polo family of serine/threonine protein kinases that have a
role in normal cell division. This gene is most abundantly expressed in testis, spleen and fetal tissues, and its
expression is inducible by serum, suggesting that it may also play an important role in cells undergoing rapid
cell division. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this
gene. (provided by RefSeq, Nov 2011)

GeneCards Summary for PLK2 Gene:
PLK2 (polo-like kinase 2) is a protein-coding gene. GO annotations related to this gene include protein serine/threonine kinase activity and signal transducer activity. An important paralog of this gene is PLK4.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PLK2_HUMAN, Q9NYY3
Function: Tumor suppressor serine/threonine-protein kinase involved in synaptic plasticity, centriole duplication
and G1/S phase transition. Polo-like kinases act by binding and phosphorylating proteins are that already
phosphorylated on a specific motif recognized by the POLO box domains. Phosphorylates CENPJ, NPM1, RAPGEF2,
RASGRF1, SNCA, SIPA1L1 and SYNGAP1. Plays a key role in synaptic plasticity and memory by regulating the Ras and
Rap protein signaling: required for overactivity-dependent spine remodeling by phosphorylating the Ras activator
RASGRF1 and the Rap inhibitor SIPA1L1 leading to their degradation by the proteasome. Conversely, phosphorylates
the Rap activator RAPGEF2 and the Ras inhibitor SYNGAP1, promoting their activity. Also regulates synaptic
plasticity independently of kinase activity, via its interaction with NSF that disrupts the interaction between
NSF and the GRIA2 subunit of AMPARs, leading to a rapid rundown of AMPAR-mediated current that occludes long term
depression. Required for procentriole formation and centriole duplication by phosphorylating CENPJ and NPM1,
respectively. Its induction by p53/TP53 suggests that it may participate in the mitotic checkpoint following
stress

Size: 685 amino acids; 78237 Da
Subunit: Interacts with NSF; causing NSF dissociation from GRIA2. Interacts with CIB1 (By similarity)
Miscellaneous: There are indications that PLK2 might act as a tumor suppressor: PLK2 is significantly
down-regulated in a wide range of acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs) and B-cell lymphomas due to aberrant cytosine
methylation in the CpG island located at the 5' of the PLK2 gene (PubMed:16160013, PubMed:21340720). Moreover,
miR-126, a microRNA that negatively regulates PLK2 is up-regulated in AMLs, suggesting that PLK2 down-regulation
by miR-126 could also contribute to leukemogenesis (PubMed:18832181)
