Screening assay to monitor mono-ADP-ribosylhydrolase activity of viral macrodomains in cells [PDF]
Mono-ADP-ribosylation, a modification of both proteins and nucleic acids, is implicated in innate immunity. Intracellularly, this modification is catalyzed by PARP enzymes, some induced in response to interferons.

The Viral Macrodomain Counters Host Antiviral ADP-Ribosylation
Macrodomains, enzymes that remove ADP-ribose from proteins, are encoded by several families of RNA viruses and have recently been shown to counter innate immune responses to virus infection.

The Mac1 ADP-ribosylhydrolase is a therapeutic target for SARS-CoV-2 [PDF]
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) continues to pose a threat to public health. Current therapeutics remain limited to direct-acting antivirals that lack distinct mechanisms of action and are already showing signs of viral ...

Mutations differentially affecting the coronavirus Mac1 ADP-ribose binding and hydrolysis activities indicate that it promotes multiple stages of the viral replication cycle [PDF]
All coronaviruses (CoVs) encode a conserved macrodomain, termed Mac1, in non-structural protein 3 (nsp3) that binds and hydrolyzes ADP-ribose covalently attached to proteins.
