The protein deacetylase SIRT1 (Sirtuin 1) regulates many cellular processes, including cell-cycle progression, DNA damage response, and metabolism. Although the centrosome is a key regulator of cell-cycle progression and genome stability, little is known concerning SIRT1 controlled centrosome-associated events. Here we report that the centrosome protein Plk2 is acetylated and undergoes deacetylation by SIRT1. Acetylation protects Plk2 from ubiquitination, and SIRT1-mediated deacetylation promotes ubiquitin-dependent degradation of Plk2. SIRT1 controls centriole duplication by temporally modulating centrosomal Plk2 levels. AURKA phosphorylates SIRT1 and promotes the SIRT1-Plk2 interaction in mitosis. In early-mid G1, phosphorylated SIRT1 deacetylates and promotes Plk2 degradation. In late G1, SIRT1 is hypophosphorylated and its affinity to Plk2 is decreased, resulting in a rapid accumulation of centrosomal Plk2, which contributes to the timely initiation of centriole duplication. Collectively, our findings uncover a critical role of SIRT1 in centriole duplication and provide a mechanistic insight into SIRT1-mediated centrosome-associated functions.

RRID:SCR_002037

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
