Abstrakt: Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is a crucial mitotic kinase that is implicated in various aspects of cell cycle. Many post-translational modifications have been identified on PLK1 to regulate its activation, stability, and localization. PLK1 has been shown previously to colocalize with the O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) transferase (OGT), and OGT regulates PLK1 stability. In our recent work, we show that PLK1 is O-GlcNAcylated by click chemistry. Using stepped collisional energy/higher energy collision dissociation mass spectrometry, we mapped the PLK1 O-GlcNAc site to be T291. We further utilized fluorescent activated cell sorting and time-lapse microscopy to assess the mitotic defects of PLK1 O-GlcNAc mutants. In vivo studies in mouse xenograft demonstrated that it promoted uterine cancer tumorigenesis. In this chapter, we delineate the methodologies we used in studying PLK1 O-GlcNAcylation, including click chemistry, stepped collisional energy/higher energy collision dissociation mass spectrometry, fluorescent activated cell sorting, time-lapse microscopy, and mouse xenograft assays.
