Plk1 promotes premature recruitment of appendage proteins on the centrioles in HU-arrested and cycling cells. (A) HeLa cells arrested in S phase by HU contain only one centriole associated with appendage proteins Cep164, Odf2, FBF1, SCLT1, and ccdc41. Expression of Plk1TD results in accumulation of these proteins on the other MC. (B) Quantification of the data presented in A. n = 300, from three independent experiments. (C) Two G1 cells expressing Plk1TD with all centrosomes associated with Cep164 (left) and Odf2 (right). Plk1TD is still visible on the midbody (MB) but degraded from the centrioles. (D) Examples of Plk1TD-expressing MCF10A cells with one or two cilia labeled for polyglutamylated tubulin and ciliary membrane protein ARL13b. (E) Percentage of ciliated cells with one or more cilia in Plk1TD-negative and -positive cells. n ≥ 100. Exp, experiment.
