The Viral Macrodomain Counters Host Antiviral ADP-Ribosylation [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2020
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.

Gene clusters reflecting macrodomain structure respond to nucleoid perturbations [PDF]

open access: yesMol. BioSyst., 2010
Focusing on the DNA-bridging nucleoid proteins Fis and H-NS, and integrating several independent experimental and bioinformatic data sources, we investigate the links between chromosomal spatial organization and global transcriptional regulation.

A Fluorescence Polarization Assay for Macrodomains Facilitates the Identification of Potent Inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 Macrodomain

open access: yesACS Chemical Biology, 2023
Viral macrodomains, which can bind to and/or hydrolyze adenine diphosphate ribose (ADP-ribose or ADPr) from proteins, have been suggested to counteract host immune response and be viable targets for the development of antiviral drugs.

The Mac1 ADP-ribosylhydrolase is a therapeutic target for SARS-CoV-2 [PDF]

open access: yeseLife
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 ...

The coronavirus macrodomain is required to prevent PARP-mediated inhibition of virus replication and enhancement of IFN expression.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2019
ADP-ribosylation is a ubiquitous post-translational addition of either monomers or polymers of ADP-ribose to target proteins by ADP-ribosyltransferases, usually by interferon-inducible diphtheria toxin-like enzymes known as PARPs.

Mitochondrial ceramide-rich macrodomains functionalize Bax upon irradiation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND:Evidence indicates that Bax functions as a "lipidic" pore to regulate mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP), the apoptosis commitment step, through unknown membrane elements.

Exploration of structure-activity relationships for the SARS-CoV-2 macrodomain from shape-based fragment linking and active learning. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Adv
The macrodomain of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 nonstructural protein 3 is required for viral pathogenesis and is an emerging antiviral target.

A Novel Self-Amplifying mRNA with Decreased Cytotoxicity and Enhanced Protein Expression by Macrodomain Mutations. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
The efficacy and safety of self‐amplifying mRNA (saRNA) have been demonstrated in COVID‐19 vaccine applications. Unlike conventional non‐replicating mRNA (nrmRNA), saRNA offers a key advantage: its self‐replication mechanism fosters efficient expression ...

The mechanisms of catalysis and ligand binding for the SARS-CoV-2 NSP3 macrodomain from neutron and x-ray diffraction at room temperature

open access: yesScience Advances, 2022
The NSP3 macrodomain of SARS CoV 2 (Mac1) removes ADP-ribosylation post-translational modifications, playing a key role in the immune evasion capabilities of the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic.
