PLK1 has been identified as a direct target of MITF activation in melanoma cells by ChIP. Consistent with this, siRNA-mediated depletion of MITF causes a reduction in PLK1 protein and a concomitant increase in cells displaying mitotic aberrations in spindle and chromosome organization (Strub et al, 2011).
