pfam12474: PKK (This model is not part of the current CDD release)
Polo kinase kinase
This domain family is found in eukaryotes, and is approximately 140 amino acids in length. The family is found in association with pfam00069. Polo-like kinase 1 (Plx1) is essential during mitosis for the activation of Cdc25C, for spindle assembly, and for cyclin B degradation. This family is Polo kinase kinase (PKK) which phosphorylates Polo kinase and Polo-like kinase to activate them. PKK is a serine/threonine kinase.
