Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * PLK3 is a serine/threonine kinase that is highly conserved across different species. * It is a key regulator of the p53 tumor suppressor pathway. * It is involved in the regulation of cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and inflammation. * It is a target for various cancer drugs. **Pathways and functions:** * PLK3 is involved in the apoptotic process by regulating the expression of pro-apoptotic genes. * It is also involved in the regulation of cell cycle progression by phosphorylating and inhibiting the TP53 tumor suppressor protein. * In the G1/S transition of the mitotic cell cycle, PLK3 is phosphorylated by MAPK and inhibited, leading to cell cycle arrest. * In the G2/M transition of the mitotic cell cycle, PLK3 is phosphorylated by cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1) and activated, leading to cell cycle progression. * It also regulates the expression of cell cycle genes through the p53 tumor suppressor pathway. * PLK3 is a key regulator of inflammation by promoting the production of inflammatory cytokines. **Clinical significance:** * PLK3 is a promising target for cancer therapy. * Inhibition of PLK3 has been shown to inhibit cancer cell growth and metastasis. * PLK3 inhibitors are currently being evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of various cancers, including breast cancer, lung cancer, and colon cancer. **Additional notes:** * PLK3 is a highly regulated gene, and its expression can be influenced by a variety of factors, including growth factors, cytokines, and genetic variants. * Mutations in PLK3 have been linked to a number of human cancers. * PLK3 is a promising target for cancer therapy due to its important role in cell cycle regulation and inflammation.
