Abstract
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the covalent attachment of polymers of ADP-ribose (PAR) moieties on itself and its target proteins. PARP1 activity is frequently deregulated in various cancers and therefore it has emerged as a new drug target for cancer therapy. The role of PARP-1 in DNA repair has been well documented and BRCA mutations are implicated for determining the sensitivity to PARP inhibitors. Recent studies also point to a role of PARP-1 in transcription regulation which may contribute to oncogenic signaling and cancer progression. Given that efficacy of PARP inhibitors are also seen in patients not harboring BRCA mutations, some other mechanisms might also be involved. In the present review, we highlight the mechanisms by which PARP-1 regulates gene expression in prostate cancer and provide an overview of the ongoing clinical trials using PARP inhibitors in various cancers including prostate cancer.

Abstract
Marine macroalgae consist of a range of bioactive molecules exhibiting different biological activities, and many of these properties are attributed to sulfated polysaccharides, fucoxanthin, phycobiliproteins, and halogenated compounds. In this study, a glycoprotein (GLP) with a molecular mass of ∼48 kDa was extracted and purified from Codium decorticatum and investigated for its cytotoxic properties against human MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. The IC₅₀ values of GLP against MDA-MB-231 and normal breast HBL-100 cells (control) were 75 ± 0.23 μg/mL (IC₂₅), 55 ± 0.32 μg/mL (IC₅₀), and 30 ± 0.43 μg/mL (IC₇₅) and 90 ± 0.57 μg/mL (IC₂₅), 80 ± 0.48 μg/mL (IC₅₀), and 60 ± 0.26 μg/mL (IC₇₅), respectively. Chromatin condensation and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) cleavage studies showed that the GLP inhibited cell viability by inducing apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 cells. Induction of mitochondria-mediated intrinsic apoptotic pathway by GLP was evidenced by the events of loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨ(m)), bax/bcl-2 dysregulation, cytochrome c release, and activation of caspases 3 and 9. Apoptosis-associated factors such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and loss of ΔΨ(m) were evaluated by DCFH-DA staining and flow cytometry, respectively. Cell cycle arrest of G₂/M phase and expression of apoptosis associated proteins were determined using flow cytometry and Western blotting, respectively.

Abstract
With the most recent releases of the Drosophila melanogaster genome sequences, much of the previously absent heterochromatic sequences have now been annotated. We undertook an extensive genetic analysis of existing lethal mutations, as well as molecular mapping and sequence analysis (using a candidate gene approach) to identify as many essential genes as possible in the centromeric heterochromatin on the right arm of the second chromosome (2Rh) of D. melanogaster. We also utilized available RNA interference lines to knock down the expression of genes in 2Rh as another approach to identifying essential genes. In total, we verified the existence of eight novel essential loci in 2Rh: CG17665, CG17683, CG17684, CG17883, CG40127, CG41265, CG42595, and Atf6. Two of these essential loci, CG41265 and CG42595, are synonymous with the previously characterized loci l(2)41Ab and unextended, respectively. The genetic and molecular analysis of the previously reported locus, l(2)41Ae, revealed that this is not a single locus, but rather it is a large region of 2Rh that extends from unextended (CG42595) to CG17665 and includes four of the novel loci uncovered here.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 (PARP-1) binds to single and double-stranded breaks in DNA, but less well known is its affinity for undamaged DNA. Previously, we have shown that PARP-1 also binds to the hairpin structures in DNA models. The mechanism underlying these interactions remains to be defined. METHODS We analyzed atomic force microscopy (AFM) images of complex of PARP-1 proteins with supercoiled plasmids containing cruciform structures. Using volume measurement analysis of molecules of PARP-1, we determined the numbers of PARP-1 molecules interacting with supercoiled DNA plasmids containing one cruciform structure. We also determined the extent of supercoiling of plasmids. RESULTS Our observations show that PARP-1 binds to sequences that transition from B-DNA to cruciform structures. PARP-1 is present at the ends of hairpin arms, sites containing a 4-base single-stranded DNA. Furthermore, interaction of PARP-1 with supercoiled plasmids leads to a more relaxed plasmid-DNA conformation. CONCLUSIONS Binding of PARP-1 to cruciform DNA offers insight into possible mechanisms underlying with changes in DNA conformation. These observations may offer insight into mechanisms involving DNA conformation related to process such as DNA repair and transcription.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation has been suggested to be involved in regulation of DNA repair, transcription, centrosome duplication, and chromosome stability. However, the regulation of degradation of poly(ADP-ribose) and its significance are not well understood. Here we report a loss-of-function mutant Drosophila with regard to poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, a major hydrolyzing enzyme of poly(ADP-ribose). The mutant lacks the conserved catalytic domain of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, and exhibits lethality in the larval stages at the normal development temperature of 25 degrees C. However, one-fourth of the mutants progress to the adult stage at 29 degrees C but showed progressive neurodegeneration with reduced locomotor activity and a short lifespan. In association with this, extensive accumulation of poly(ADP-ribose) could be detected in the central nervous system. These results suggest that poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism is required for maintenance of the normal function of neuronal cells. The phenotypes observed in the parg mutant might be useful to understand neurodegenerative conditions such as the Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases that are caused by abnormal accumulation of substances in nervous tissue.

Abstract
The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family of nuclear enzymes is involved in the detection and signaling of single strand breaks induced either directly by ionizing radiation or indirectly by the sequential action of various DNA repair proteins. Therefore, PARP plays an important role in maintaining genome stability. Because PARP proteins contain two zinc finger motifs, these enzymes can be targets for reactive nitrogen oxide intermediates (RNOS) generated as a result of nitric oxide (NO) biosynthesis in an aerobic environment. The effects of RNOS on the activity of purified PARP were examined using donor compounds. Both NO and nitroxyl (HNO) donors were found to be inhibitory in a similar time and concentration manner, indicating that PARP activity can be modified under both nitrosative and oxidative conditions. Moreover, these RNOS donors elicited comparable PARP inhibition in Sf21 insect cell extract and intact human MCF-7 cancer cells. The concentrations of donor required for 90% inhibition of PARP activity produce RNOS at a similar magnitude to those generated in the cellular microenvironment of activated leukocytes, suggesting that cellular scavenging of RNOS may not be protective against PARP modification and that inhibition of PARP may be significant under inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a major NAD-dependent modifying enzyme that mediates important steps in DNA repair, transcription, and apoptosis, but its role during development is poorly understood. We found that a single Drosophila Parp gene spans more than 150 kb of transposon-rich centromeric heterochromatin and produces several differentially spliced transcripts, including a novel isoform, PARP-e, predicted to encode a protein lacking enzymatic activity. An insertion mutation near the upstream promoter for Parp-e disrupts all Parp expression. Heterochromatic but not euchromatic sequences become hypersensitive to micrococcal nuclease, nucleoli fail to form, and transcript levels of the copia retrotransposon are elevated more than 50-fold; the variegated expression of certain transgenes is dominantly enhanced. Larval lethality can be rescued and PARP activity restored by expressing a cDNA encoding PARP-e. We propose that PARP-e autoregulates Parp transcription by influencing the chromatin structure of its heterochromatic environment. Our results indicate that Parp plays a fundamental role organizing the structure of Drosophila chromatin.

Abstract
We have previously identified poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) as a coactivator for the human T cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) transcription activator Tax. While PARP-1 is believed to contribute to DNA repair, PARP-1 has been described as a coactivator for other transcription factors. Recent evidence suggests that PARP-1 forms complexes on cellular promoters, so we investigated PARP-1 complexes on the HTLV-I Tax responsive elements (TxREs) using an end-blocked DNA binding assay. We observed sequence-specific binding of PARP-1 to the TxREs. The DNA binding domain of PARP-1 was fused to the transcriptional activation domain of VP16, and this fusion protein activated the HTLV-I promoter in a TxRE-dependent manner. Internal, sequence-specific binding of PARP-1 to DNA provides a mechanism for transcriptional regulation of the HTLV-I promoter. The mechanism of PARP-1 function in the HTLV-I system may have common mechanistic steps with other cellular promoters, including the formation of active complexes on the promoter.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest that the synthesis of protein-bound ADP-ribose polymers catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) regulates eucaryotic gene expression, including the NF-kappaB-dependent pathway. Here, we report the molecular mechanism by which PARP-1 activates the sequence-specific binding of NF-kappaB to its oligodeoxynucleotide. We co-incubated pure recombinant human PARP-1 and the p50 subunit of NF-kappaB (NF-kappaB-p50) in the presence or absence of betaNAD+ in vitro. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays showed that, when PARP-1 was present, NF-kappaB-p50 DNA binding was dependent on the presence of betaNAD+. DNA binding by NF-kappaB-p50 was not efficient in the absence of betaNAD+. In fact, the binding was not efficient in the presence of 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB) either. Thus, we conclude that NF-kappaB-p50 DNA binding is protein-poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation dependent. Co-immunoprecipitation and immunoblot analysis revealed that PARP-1 physically interacts with NF-kappaB-p50 with high specificity in the absence of betaNAD+. Because NF-kB-p50 was not an efficient covalent target for poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, our results are consistent with the conclusion that the auto-poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation reaction catalyzed by PARP-1 facilitates the binding of NF-kappaB-p50 to its DNA by inhibiting the specific protein.protein interactions between NF-kappaB-p50 and PARP-1. We also report the activation of NF-kappaB DNA binding by the automodification reaction of PARP-1 in cultured HeLa cells following exposure to H(2)O(2). In these experiments, preincubation of HeLa cells with 3-AB, prior to oxidative damage, strongly inhibited NF-kappaB activation in vivo as well.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is an immediate cellular response to DNA damage generated either exogenously or endogenously. This post-translational modification is catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP, PARP-1, EC 2.4.2.30). It is proposed that this protein plays a multifunctional role in many cellular processes, including DNA repair, recombination, cell proliferation and death, as well as genomic stability. Chemical inhibitors of the enzyme, dominant negative or null mutations of PARP-1 cause a high degree of genomic instability in cells. Inhibition of PARP activity by chemical inhibitors renders mice or rats susceptible to carcinogenic agents in various tumor models, indicating a role for PARP-1 in suppressing tumorigenesis. Despite the above observations, PARP-1 knockout mice are generally not prone to the development of tumors. An enhanced tumor development was observed, however, when the PARP-1 null mutation was introduced into severely compromised immune-deficient mice (a mutation in DNA-dependent protein kinase) or mice lacking other DNA repair or chromosomal guardian molecules, such as p53 or Ku80. These studies indicate that PARP-1 functions as a cofactor to suppress tumorigenesis via its role in stabilization of the genome, and/or by interacting with other DNA strand break-sensing molecules. Studies using PARP-1 mutants and chemical inhibitors have started to shed light on the role of this protein and of the specific protein post-translational modification in the control of genomic stability and hence its involvement in cancer.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a nuclear enzyme activated by binding to a single- or double-strand break of DNA and is one of the death substrates for caspase-3 in apoptosis. The nuclear function of PARP is well studied and recent PARP-knockout studies indicate that PARP takes part in chromosomal stability. To analyze the effect of PARP overexpression, or loss of function, we have cloned PARP cDNA and the gene from Drosophila melanogaster and studied its function in developmental stages. Organization of exons corresponds to the functional domains of PARP. An alternatively spliced form of PARP lacking exon 5, which encodes the auto-modification domain, is found in Drosophila. Expression of the PARP gene is at high levels in embryos at 0-6h after egg laying and gradually decreased. In situ mRNA hybridization indicates localization of PARP mRNA in cells along the central nervous system at a late stage of embryogenesis. Overexpression of the gene in the developing eye primordia of D. melanogaster is an excellent experimental model to analyze the cell cycle and programmed cell death. We introduced PARP expression vector overexpresses PARP in the eye discs of Drosophila, and established the PARP transgenic flies by P element-mediated germ line transformation. These flies showed mild roughening of the normally smooth ommatidial lattice involving tissue polarity disruption characterized by missrotation and incorrect chirality of ommatidia. Possible mechanisms of involvement of PARP in the development are discussed.

Abstract
Poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) synthetase (PARS) is a nuclear enzyme that is activated by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) strand breaks and participates in DNA repair. Excessive PARS activation, however, leads to cell death due to depletion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). To evaluate whether it is possible to detect excessive activation of PARS with positron emission tomography (PET), we examined the pharmacokinetics of 3,4-dihydro-5-[(11)C]methoxy-1(2H)-isoquinolinone ([(11)C]MIQO), a potent poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase inhibitor, in the brain of rats and monkeys. Although the uptake of [(11)C]MIQO in the brain of normal rats was low, [(11)C]MIQO was rapidly incorporated into and then quickly washed out from the brain. The uptake of the radiotracer in the brain of normal monkeys was also low; however, [(11)C]MIQO gave a distribution image that differed from that of cerebral blood flow obtained by [(15)O]water-PET. No localization of [(11)C]MIQO in the brain of normal monkeys was observed. Low accumulation of some radioactivity was also observed in muscles surrounding the brain of monkeys, but did not seem to interfere with measurement of [(11)C]MIQO uptake in the brain with PET. Thus, detection of [(11)C]MIQO uptake with PET may be useful for detecting PARS activity in ischemic injury.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosylation) is a post-translational modification of nuclear proteins typical of most eukaryotic cells. This process participates in DNA replication and repair and is mainly regulated by two enzymes, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, which is responsible for the synthesis of polymers of ADP-ribose, and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, which performs polymer degradation. The aim of this work was to investigate in the cockroach Periplaneta americana L. (Blattaria: Blattidae) the behaviour of poly(ADP-ribosylation). In particular, we addressed: (i) the possible modulation of poly(ADP-ribosylation) during the embryonic development; (ii) the expression of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and glycohydrolase in different tissues; and (iii) the role of poly(ADP-ribosylation) during spermatogenesis. In this work we demonstrated that: (i) as revealed by specific biochemical assays, active poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and glycohydrolase are present exclusively in P. americana embryos at early stages of development; (ii) an activity carrying out poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis was found in extracts from testes; and (iii) the synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) occurs preferentially in differentiating spermatids/spermatozoa. Collectively, our results indicate that the poly(ADP-ribosylation) process in P. americana, which is a hemimetabolous insect, displays catalytical and structural features similar to those described in the holometabolous insects and in mammalian cells. Furthermore, this process appears to be modulated during embryonic development and spermatogenesis.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) catalyzes the transfer of successive units of ADP-ribose moiety from NAD(+) covalently to itself and other nuclear acceptor proteins. PARP is a zinc finger-containing protein, allowing the enzyme to bind to either double- or single-strand DNA breaks without any apparent sequence preference. The catalytic activity of PARP is strictly dependent on the presence of strand breaks in DNA and is modulated by the level of automodification. Data from many studies show that PARP is involved in numerous biological functions, all of which are associated with the breaking and rejoining of DNA strands, and plays a pivotal role in DNA damage repair. Recent advances in apoptosis research identified PARP as one of the intracellular "death substrates" and demonstrated the involvement of polymerase in the execution of programmed cell death. This review summarizes the biological effects of PARP function that may have a potential for targeted sensitization of tumor cells to genotoxic agents and radiotherapy. Int. J. Cancer (Radiat. Oncol. Invest.) 90, 59-67 (2000).

Abstract
The biochemical role of the C-terminal fragment of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) was investigated in HeLa cells undergoing UV-mediated apoptosis. During the course of apoptosis, the C-terminal cleavage product of PARP interacted with intact PARP and down-regulated PARP activity by blocking the homodimerization of PARP. The basic leucine zipper motif in the auto-modification domain of the C-terminal fragment of PARP represented the site of association, and Leu(405) was critical to the ability of the basic leucine zipper motif to associate with intact PARP. The expression of the C-terminal fragment of PARP stimulated UV-mediated apoptosis. These results suggest that the C-terminal cleavage product of PARP produced during apoptosis blocks the homodimerization of PARP and inhibits the cellular PARP activity. The inhibition of the cellular PARP activity might prevent cellular NAD(+) depletion and stimulate apoptosis by maintaining the basal cellular energy level required for the completion of apoptosis.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a post-translational modification of proteins. During this process, molecules of ADP-ribose are added successively on to acceptor proteins to form branched polymers. This modification is transient but very extensive in vivo, as polymer chains can reach more than 200 units on protein acceptors. The existence of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymer was first reported nearly 40 years ago. Since then, the importance of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis has been established in many cellular processes. However, a clear and unified picture of the physiological role of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation still remains to be established. The total dependence of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis on DNA strand breaks strongly suggests that this post-translational modification is involved in the metabolism of nucleic acids. This view is also supported by the identification of direct protein-protein interactions involving poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (113 kDa PARP), an enzyme catalysing the formation of poly(ADP-ribose), and key effectors of DNA repair, replication and transcription reactions. The presence of PARP in these multiprotein complexes, in addition to the actual poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of some components of these complexes, clearly supports an important role for poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation reactions in DNA transactions. Accordingly, inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis by any of several approaches and the analysis of PARP-deficient cells has revealed that the absence of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation strongly affects DNA metabolism, most notably DNA repair. The recent identification of new poly(ADP-ribosyl)ating enzymes with distinct (non-standard) structures in eukaryotes and archaea has revealed a novel level of complexity in the regulation of poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism.

Abstract
Here, we describe the latest developments on the mechanistic characterization of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) [EC 2.4.2.30], a DNA-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of protein-bound ADP-ribose polymers in eucaryotic chromatin. A detailed kinetic analysis of the automodification reaction of PARP in the presence of nicked dsDNA indicates that protein-poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation probably occurs via a sequential mechanism since enzyme-bound ADP-ribose chains are not reaction intermediates. The multiple enzymatic activities catalyzed by PARP (initiation, elongation, branching and self-modification) are the subject of a very complex regulatory mechanism that may involve allosterism. For instance, while the NAD+ concentration determines the average ADP-ribose polymer size (polymerization reaction), the frequency of DNA strand breaks determines the total number of ADP-ribose chains synthesized (initiation reaction). A general discussion of some of the mechanisms that regulate these multiple catalytic activities of PARP is presented below.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a nuclear enzyme that recognizes and binds to the nicks and ends of DNA, and catalyses successive ADP-ribosylation reactions. To clarify the function of PARP at the molecular level, we searched proteins which interact with PARP. In the auto-modification domain of PARP in Drosophila, there is a putative leucine-zipper motif which can interact with other protein molecules. To find interacting proteins we examined the auto-modification domain of Drosophila PARP, using the Far-Western screening method. From six independent cDNA clones isolated, we characterized two clones, PBP-3 and PBP-12. The predicted amino acid sequences from 109 to 269 of PBP-3 and from 184 to 312 of PBP-12 had more than 62% identities to mammalian L23a (rpl23a) and L22 (rpl22), the ribosomal proteins of the large subunit. This indicated that PBP-3 and PBP-12 are Drosophila homologues of L23a and L22, respectively. These Drosophila ribosomal protein L22 and L23a have additional Ala-, Lys- and Pro-rich sequences at the amino terminus, which have a resemblance to the carboxy-terminal portion of histone H1. Thus, Drosophila L22 and L23a might have two functions, namely the role of DNA-binding similar to histone H1 and the role of organizing the ribosome.

Abstract
We here report an alternatively spliced form of PARP lacking exon 5 of the Drosophila PARP gene encoding the auto-modification domain. The alternative form of PARP (PARP II) consists 804 amino acids with a molecular weight of 92.3 kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence of PARP II was completely matched to that of PARP I encoded by a full-length Drosophila PARP cDNA, except it lacks the region corresponding to the auto-modification domain. To examine the function of PARP II, stable transformants of Rat-1 cells in which PARP II was ectopically expressed by MMTV-LTR were isolated and characterized. After induction with dexamethasone, PARP II transformants showed slower growth and showed morphological changes with loss of spindled shape compared to cells transformed with the vector or PARP I. The PARP II-transformed cells incorporated propidium iodide after induction; however, Annexin V and TUNEL analysis indicated these changes were not due to apoptosis.

Abstract
Using a reverse-transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction approach human and murine UDPG-dehydrogenase (GDH) was cloned from fibroblast mRNAs. Human enzyme is 97% and 27% identical with its murine and E. coli orthologs. Murine mRNA of 3.1 kb size is expressed in all the tissue studied at a level independent of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GADPH) mRNA. In human fibroblast in vitro, 2 GDH transcripts were observed. They were expressed proportionally to GAPDH. The simple pattern of human GDH Southern blotting suggests a single copy gene. An antisense oligonucleotide directed to the ATG region of the human enzyme inhibited 35S-sulphate incorporation into extracellular macromolecules, especially proteoglycans. These data indicate that GDH expression may regulate proteoglycan synthesis in the cells.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of proteins catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP; EC 2.4.2.30) modulates several biological activities. However, little is known about the role of PARP in developmental process. Here we report the organization of the Drosophila PARP gene and the expression patterns during Drosophila development. The Drosophila PARP gene was a single copy gene mapped at 81F and composed of six exons. Organization of exons corresponds to the functional domains of PARP. The DNA-binding domain was encoded by exons 1, 2, 3, and 4. The auto-modification domain was encoded by exon 5, and the catalytic domain was in exon 6. The promoter region of the PARP gene contained putative TATA box and CCAAT box unlike human PARP. Expression of the PARP gene was at high levels in embryos at 0-6 h after egg laying and gradually decreased until 8 h. PARP mRNA increased again at 8-12 h and was observed in pupae and adult flies but not in larvae. In situ mRNA hybridization of embryos revealed large amount of PARP mRNA observed homogeneously except the pole cells at the early stage of embryos, possibly due to presence of the maternal mRNA for PARP, and decreased gradually until the stage 12 in which stage PARP mRNA localized in anal plates. At late stage of embryogenesis PARP mRNA was localized in cells along the central nervous system.

Abstract
We isolated several clones from a matchmaker two-hybrid system human lymphocyte cDNA library using an automodification domain of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase (PARS) as a probe. A DNA sequence (approximately 1 kbp) of the clone was identical to part of the Oct-1 DNA sequence. We then constructed either a His-tagged or GST fusion protein of the inserted cDNA from the clone and the fusion protein was shown to interact with PARS by far-Western blot analysis and co-precipitation with affinity resin. Furthermore, the His-tagged Oct-1/POU-homeo fusion protein interacted weakly with the octamer motif of the DRa promoter and the addition of PARS fusion protein greatly increased the DNA binding activity. These results suggest that PARS interacts with Oct-1 and stabilizes the binding of Oct-1 to the octamer motif.

Abstract
The synthesis and rapid turnover of ADP-ribose polymers is an immediate cellular response to DNA damage. We report here the isolation and characterization of cDNA encoding poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG), the enzyme responsible for polymer turnover. PARG was isolated from bovine thymus, yielding a protein of approximately 59 kDa. Based on the sequence of oligopeptides derived from the enzyme, polymerase chain reaction products and partial cDNA clones were isolated and used to construct a putative full-length cDNA. The cDNA of approximately 4.1 kilobase pairs predicted expression of a protein of approximately 111 kDa, nearly twice the size of the isolated protein. A single transcript of approximately 4. 3 kilobase pairs was detected in bovine kidney poly(A)+ RNA, consistent with expression of a protein of 111 kDa. Expression of the cDNA in Escherichia coli resulted in an enzymatically active protein of 111 kDa and an active fragment of 59 kDa. Analysis of restriction endonuclease fragments from bovine DNA by Southern hybridization indicated that PARG is encoded by a single copy gene. Taken together, the results indicate that previous reports of multiple PARGs can be explained by proteolysis of an 111-kDa enzyme. The deduced amino acid sequence of the bovine PARG shares little or no homology with other known proteins. However, it contains a putative bipartite nuclear location signal as would be predicted for a nuclear protein. The availability of cDNA clones for PARG should facilitate structure-function studies of the enzyme and its involvement in cellular responses to genomic damage.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a nuclear enzyme which catalyzes the transfer of ADP-ribose units from NAD+ to a variety of nuclear proteins under the stimulation of DNA strand break. To examine its role in DNA repair, we have been studying the interaction of PARP with other nuclear proteins using disulfide cross-linking, initiated by sodium tetrathionate (NaTT). Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells were extracted sequentially with Nonidet P40 (detergent), nucleases (DNase+RNase), and high salt (1.6 M NaCl) with and without the addition of a sulfhydryl reducing agent. The residual structures are referred to as the nuclear matrix, and are implicated in the organization of DNA repair and replication. Treatment of the cells with NaTT causes the crosslinking of PARP to the nuclear matrix. Activating PARP by pretreating the cells with H2O2 did not increase the cross-linking of PARP with the nuclear matrix, suggesting a lack of additional interaction of the enzyme with the nuclear matrix during DNA repair. Both NaTT and H2O2 induced crosslinks of PARP that were extractable with high salt. To shorten the procedure, these crosslinks were extracted from cells without nucleases and high salt treatment, using phosphate buffer. Using western blotting, these crosslinks appeared as a smear of high molecular weight species including a possible dimer of PARP at 230 kDa, which return to 116 kDa following reduction with beta-mercaptoethanol.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a posttranslational modification of nuclear proteins catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP; EC 2.4.2.30), with NAD+ serving as the substrate. PARP is strongly activated upon recognition of DNA strand breaks by its DNA-binding domain. Experiments with low-molecular-weight inhibitors of PARP have led to the view that PARP activity plays a role in DNA repair and possibly also in DNA replication, cell proliferation, and differentiation. Accumulating evidence for nonspecific inhibitor effects prompted us to develop a molecular genetic system to inhibit PARP in living cells, i.e., to overexpress selectively the DNA-binding domain of PARP as a dominant negative mutant. Here we report on a cell culture system which allows inducible, high-level expression of the DNA-binding domain. Induction of this domain leads to about 90% reduction of poly(ADP-ribose) accumulation after gamma-irradiation and sensitizes cells to the cytotoxic effect of gamma-irradiation and of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine. In contrast, induction does not affect normal cellular proliferation or the replication of a transfected polyomavirus replicon. Thus, trans-dominant inhibition of the poly(ADP-ribose) accumulation occurring after gamma-irradiation or N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine is specifically associated with a disturbance of the cellular recovery from the inflicted damage.

Abstract
Cellular proteins extracted from normal and cancer cells bind polymerizing ADP-ribose transferase (pADPRT) on nitrocellulose membrane transblots. Histones at 1 mg/ml concentration completely prevent the binding of pADPRT to cellular proteins, indicating that the binding of histones to pADPRT sites competitively blocks the association of pADPRT to proteins other than histones. The direct binding of pADPRT to histones is shown by cross-linking with glutaraldehyde. The COOH-terminal basic histone H1 tail binds to the basic polypeptide domain of pADPRT. The basic domain present in the NH2-terminal part of core histones is the probable common structural feature of all core histones that accounts for their binding to pADPRT. Two polypeptide domains of pADPRT were identified, by way of CNBr fragments, to bind histones. These two domains are located within the 64-kDa fragment of pADPRT and are contiguous with the polypeptide domains that were shown to participate in self-association of pADPRT, ending at the 606th amino acid residue. The polypeptide domains of pADPRT which participate in DNA binding are thus shown to associate also with other proteins. Intact pADPRT binds to both the zinc-free or zinc-reconstituted basic polypeptide fragments of pADPRT. Histones activate auto-poly(ADP)-ribosylation of pADPRT by increasing the number of short oligomers on pADPRT. This reaction is also dependent in a biphasic manner on the concentration of pADPRT. Histones in solution are only marginally poly(ADP)-ribosylated but are good polymer acceptors when incorporated into artificial nucleosome structures.

Abstract
Sequence similarities between the enzymatic region of poly-ADP-ribose polymerase and the corresponding region of mono-ADP-ribosylating bacterial toxins suggest similarities in active site structure and catalytic mechanism. Glu988 of the human polymerase aligns with the catalytic glutamic acid of the toxins, and replacement of this residue with Gln, Asp, or Ala caused major reductions in synthesis of enzyme-linked poly-ADP-ribose. Replacement of any of 3 other nearby Glu residues had little effect. The Glu988 mutations produced similar changes in activity in the carboxyl-terminal 40-kDa catalytic fragment fused to maltose-binding protein: E988Q and E988A reduced polymer elongation > 2000-fold, and E988D approximately 20-fold. Smaller changes were seen in chain initiation. The mutations had little effect on the Km of NAD, indicating a predominantly catalytic function for Glu988. The results support the concept of similar active sites of the polymerase and the ADP-ribosylating toxins. Glu988 may function in polymer elongation similarly to the toxins' active site glutamate, as a general base to activate the attacking nucleophile (in the case of the polymerase, the 2'-OH of the terminal adenosine group of a nascent poly-ADP-ribose chain).

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase cDNAs have been isolated from different classes of animals. Cloning of genes from lower eukaryotes has allowed us to investigate directly the biological functions of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation in vivo. The conservation of specific regions among mammals, chicken, Xenopus laevis, and Drosophila melanogaster reveals the essential structural elements required for recognition of breaks in DNA and for catalytic activity. Cys, His and basic residues in the zinc-finger consensus region are conserved. The carboxyl terminal region corresponding to an NAD-binding domain is strongly conserved. The dinucleotide-binding consensus sequence and beta 1-alpha A-beta 2, Rossmann fold structure, and beta-sheet structures are completely conserved from mammals to insect. In Drosophila, a putative leucine-zipper motif has been identified, and other poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases also contain an alpha-helical, amphipathic structure in the auto-modification domain. In this article, we review the recent structural analyses of the functional domains of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase in phylogenetically divergent species, and discuss the implications of structural conservation for its biological functions.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a eukaryotic posttranslational protein modification catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), a highly conserved nuclear enzyme which uses NAD as substrate. We have previously tested PARP activity in permeabilized mononuclear blood cells (MNC) from 13 mammalian species as a function of the species-specific life span. A direct and maximal stimulus of PARP activation was provided by including saturating amounts of a double-stranded oligonucleotide in the PARP-reaction buffer. The data yielded a strong positive correlation between PARP activities and the species' maximal life spans (r = 0.84; p << 0.001). Here, we investigated the formation of poly(ADP-ribose) in living MNC from two mammalian species with widely differing longevity (rat and man) by immunofluorescence detection of poly(ADP-ribose). The fraction of positive cells was recorded, following gamma-irradiation of intact MNC, as a semiquantitative estimation of poly(ADP-ribose) formation. Human samples displayed a significantly higher percentage of positivity than did those from rats, consistent with our previous results on permeabilized cells. While rat MNC had a higher NAD content than human MNC, the number of radiation-induced DNA strand breaks was not significantly different in the two species. Since poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is apparently involved in DNA repair and the cellular recovery from DNA damage, we speculate that the higher poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation capacity of long-lived species might more efficiently help to slow down the accumulation of unrepaired DNA damage and of genetic alterations, as compared with short-lived species.

Abstract
In this minireview, we summarize recent advances on the enzymology of ADP-ribose polymer synthesis. First, a short discussion of the primary structure and cloning of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) [EC 2.4.2.30], the enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose), is presented. A catalytic distinction between the multiple enzymatic activities of PARP is established. The direction of ADP-ribose chain growth as well as the molecular mechanism of the automodification reaction catalyzed by PARP are described. Current approaches to dissect ADP-ribose polymer synthesis into individual reactions of initiation, elongation and branching, as well as a partial mechanistic characterization of the ADP-ribose elongation reaction at the chemical level are also presented. Finally, recent developments in the catalytic characterization of PARP by site-directed mutagenesis are also briefly summarized.

Abstract
The enzymes poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase may cooperate to drive a histone shuttle mechanism in chromatin. The mechanism is triggered by binding of the N-terminal zinc-finger domain of the polymerase to DNA strand breaks, which activates the catalytic activities residing in the C-terminal domain. The polymerase converts into a protein carrying multiple ADP-ribose polymers which displace histones from DNA by specifically targeting the histone tails responsible for DNA condensation. As a result, the domains surrounding DNA strand breaks become accessible to other proteins. Poly(ADP-ribose)glycohydrolase attacks ADP-ribose polymers in a specific order and thereby releases histones for reassociation with DNA. Increasing evidence from different model systems suggests that histone shuttling participates in DNA repair in vivo as a catalyst for nucleosomal unfolding.

Abstract
The activity of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PADPRP), a chromatin-associated enzyme present in most eukaryotic cells, is stimulated by DNA strand breaks, suggesting a role for the enzyme in the cellular response to DNA damage. However, the primary function of PADPRP remains unknown. We have selected Schizosaccharomyces pombe as a simple eukaryotic system in which to study PADPRP function because this fission yeast shares with mammalian cells important cellular features possibly associated with poly-(ADP-ribos)ylation pathways. We investigated the existence of an endogenous yeast PADPRP by DNA and RNA hybridization to mammalian probes under low-stringency conditions and by PADPRP activity assays. Our data indicate that fission yeasts are naturally devoid of PADPRP. We therefore isolated S. pombe strains expressing PADPRP by transformation with a human full-length PADPRP cDNA under the control of the SV40 early promoter. The human PADPRP construct was transcribed and translated in S. pombe, generating a major transcript of the same size (3.7 kb) as that detected in mammalian cells and a 113-kDa polypeptide, identical in size to the native human PADPRP protein. Yeast recombinant PADPRP was enzymatically active and was recognized by antibodies to human PADPRP. S. pombe cells expressing PADPRP (SPT strains) showed a stable phenotype that was characterized by: (i) cell cycle retardation as a result of a specific delay at the G1 phase, (ii) decreased cell viability in stationary cultures, (iii) enhanced rates of spontaneous and radiation-induced ade6-ade7 mutations, and (iv) increased sensitivity to radiation. SPT strains may prove efficient tools with which to investigate PADPRP functions in eukaryotic cells.

Abstract
A cDNA spanning the entire coding region for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) of Sarcophaga peregrina was isolated and the nucleotide sequence was determined. The longest open reading frame encodes a polypeptide of 996 amino acid residues with a molecular mass of 113,033 Da. The similarities to the human PARP in amino acid sequence were relatively low in the DNA-binding and auto-modification domains, but very high in the C-terminal catalytic domain: identity of amino acids is 34% in the N-terminal DNA-binding domain (residues 1-369), 27% in the auto-modification domain (residues 370-507), and 56% in the C-terminal NAD-binding domain (residues 508-996). Two zinc-fingers (C-X2-C-X28-H-X2-C and C-X2-C-X31-H-X2-C)2 and a basic region in the N-terminal DNA-binding domain recognized in other PARP are conserved. Downstream of the basic region, another cysteine-rich motif (C-X2-C-X13-C-X9-C), a putative zinc-finger, was found to be well conserved in the PARP of Sarcophaga, Drosophila and human. A leucine-zipper motif (L-X6-L-X6-L-X6-L) which was found in the auto-modification domain of Drosophila PARP, is disrupted in the Sarcophaga enzyme: the second leucine is replaced by proline, and the third leucine by valine. Full-length cDNA for Sarcophaga PARP was cloned into an expression plasmid and expressed in Escherichia coli. A lysate of E. coli cells containing expressed protein reacted with antibody against Sarcophaga PARP, and PARP activity was detected. Thus, we conclude that isolated cDNA encodes a functional Sarcophaga PARP cDNA.
