Target data

Function

Key regulator of cytokinesis that cross-links antiparrallel microtubules at an average distance of 35 nM. Essential for controlling the spatiotemporal formation of the midzone and successful cytokinesis. Required for KIF14 localization to the central spindle and midbody. Required to recruit PLK1 to the spindle. Stimulates PLK1 phosphorylation of RACGAP1 to allow recruitment of ECT2 to the central spindle. Acts as an oncogene for promoting bladder cancer cells proliferation, apoptosis inhibition and carcinogenic progression (PubMed:17409436).

Activity summary

PRC1 also known as Protein Regulator of Cytokinesis 1 affiliates with cellular division mechanics. This protein weighs approximately 72 kDa. PRC1 localizes in the nucleus during the interphase and redistributes to the spindle midzone during mitosis. It plays a role in the stabilization of microtubules facilitating proper cytokinesis. Expression of PRC1 occurs in several human tissues notably in dividing cells.

Biological function summary

PRC1 functions in accurately regulating actin and microtubule interaction during cell division. As a part of the centralspindlin complex it ensures correct spindle midzone formation and serves as a marker for the cleavage furrow. Cellular events coordinated by PRC1 involve chromosomal segregation and rapidly proliferating cells express it to maintain integrity during mitotic processes.

Pathways

PRC1 contributes significantly to the mitotic spindle checkpoint. It participates in the Aurora B kinase pathway interacting with proteins like KIF4A and PLK1. This protein ensures the transition from metaphase to anaphase is precise preventing aneuploidy. As a pathway node PRC1 manages signal transduction facilitating cell cycle regulation and fidelity.

Associated diseases and disorders

Dysregulation of PRC1 expression associates with cancer notably prostate and breast cancer. Tumor cells often display altered PRC1 activity linked to abnormal cell proliferation. The protein interacts with the oncogenic proteins such as p53 indicating a role in tumorigenesis and progression. Exploring therapeutic strategies targeting PRC1 could provide insights into cancer treatment.
