Here, we report the cloning of a fifth member of the Polo-like kinase family named Plk5. We show that mouse Plk5 is a DNA damage inducible gene. Ectopic expression of Plk5 leads to cell cycle arrest in G1, decreased DNA synthesis, and to apoptosis. Interestingly, in contrast to mouse Plk5 gene, the sequence of human Plk5 contains a stop codon that produces a truncated protein lacking part of the kinase domain.
